The oil canvas is so unusually realistic that it really caught my eye. Here are three men planning a floor--perhaps it’s new, or an old one being refinished--and their really hard work (I’ve done the same job) is so strikingly at odds with the elegant room they are in, that the picture intrigues me. I can almost smell the raw wood, and the men’s sweat. We are in a…

Despite the decades that have passed since the conception of the painting, the colors are still striking, especially the gold tint that surrounds each subject. Additionally, the focal point of the painting, Mary who…

All of a sudden it hit me like a bat hit a baseball, of how powerful this painting is. “Eden is the tract…

Due to the medium in the drawing being fragile, it gave a ghostlike presence, eerie sense of the past. Why are Whitfield Lovell and William…
