Maurice Brazil Prendergast Idyl c. 1912a'1915
Maurice Brazil Prendergast: Idyl, Maurice Brazil Prendergast, c. 1912-1915, Oil on canvas, Maurice Prendergast was an American artist who applied the lessons of French post-impressionism to his own work. The bold brushwork you see here, for example, which lends the canvas its rough texture, was influenced by the pointillist technique of Georges Seurat. Idyl alludes to a classical tradition of depicting nude women posed in the outdoors. Prendergast updates that tradition by mixing in clothed and half-dressed figures who come across not as classical muses but as self-possessed, modern women. The frame for this painting was made by Charles Prendergast, the artists brother. Overall: 24 x 32 1/8 in. (61 x 81.6 cm)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Maurice Brazil Prendergast's masterpiece, "Idyl" created between 1912 and 1915. As an American artist deeply influenced by French post-impressionism, Prendergast skillfully applies the techniques he learned from artists like Georges Seurat to his own work. The painting's bold brushwork creates a textured surface that adds depth and character to the canvas. "Idyl" draws inspiration from classical traditions of depicting nude women in outdoor settings but takes a modern twist. Instead of portraying traditional muses, Prendergast introduces clothed and half-dressed figures who exude self-confidence and independence. This juxtaposition of classical elements with contemporary sensibilities gives the artwork a unique charm. Notably, Charles Prendergast, Maurice's brother, crafted the frame for this painting, adding another layer of artistic collaboration within their family. Measuring at 24 x 32 1/8 inches (61 x 81.6 cm), this print captures every intricate detail of Prendergast's composition. Whether you appreciate its historical allusions or admire its fusion of classical and modern aesthetics, this piece is sure to captivate any art lover.
