WidlizkaLeopold - Mountain Torrent.JPG
A cascade of water runs diagonally in Widlizka’s composition, separating two areas of trees standing on what appears to be rocky foundation. Much of the water is obscured by the trees, several of which are very dark green with some lighter shades…

WeinElsie - Girl with Tulips.JPG
A pale-skinned young woman with blue eyes and brown hair, wearing a blue day dress, lifts a single red tulip stem from a vase of five red tulips. Mirroring the dark brown background, a round, wooden table is the stable platform for the two-handled…

WardEdgarMelville - Japanese Garden.jpg
This painting depicts blooming Japanese flora in what appears to be a body of water; however, most of the canvas is negative space, a technique that allows for a higher contrast in colors of Ward’s vegetation. It also is perhaps intended to allow…

WaltemathWilliam - North Pond.JPG
This painting features a wilderness scene, strikingly symmetrical in its composition, with a pond, undulating row of trees, hills, and clouds. It is rendered mainly in earthy brown tones with a small pop of blue in the color of the pond. Waltemath’s…

Brilliant colors of red, white, green, and deep blues and purples stand out in this crown of flowers set against a monochrome backdrop. The flowers are supported via ceramic vase, as the flowers fawn out from the mouth of the vase; this whole…

Theobald--Close Relations.JPG
A table, draped in eggshell cloth and situated in front of a curtain of the same color, holds a vase containing cherry blossoms, a tea cup, a decorated box—perhaps a tea chest?—and a small statue of a frog. Each of the items seems to evoke East Asian…

TheobaldSamuel - Fishing Boats, New Suffolk.JPG
Two boats, a sailboat at left and a motor boat at right, are stationary on calm water. Trees that occupy the background of this piece are reflected by the water in which several moorings are stand. A sand hill or trail cuts into these trees. The…

TerrellElizabeth - Local Stop.JPG
A local town is represented as a train stop, hinted at beyond a hill. It appears to be either fall or the middle of a drought, as the colors used are warm—mostly reds, oranges, and yellows—with the corn and surrounding vegetation brown and yellow.…
