The Animal Tamer Presents, 1918
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor and pencil print by Charles Demuth, showcasing his artistic talent and attention to detail. The artwork measures 32.7 x 20.1 cm and belongs to a private collection. This particular piece was created as an illustration for Frank Wedekind's play "Earth Spirit" which was published posthumously in 1918. It depicts a scene from the circus, with a female animal tamer standing confidently in front of the audience inside the big top. She is dressed in an elaborate costume, hands on hips, exuding power and control. The vibrant colors of the watercolor bring life to the composition, while the delicate pencil lines add depth and texture. The artist skillfully captures every detail - from the intricate lettering on banners to the expressive speech bubble above one of the spectators. Demuth's portrayal not only showcases his technical prowess but also highlights his ability to capture human posture and emotion through art. The viewer can almost feel themselves transported into this early twentieth-century circus setting, entertained by this mesmerizing performance. "The Animal Tamer Presents" is truly a masterpiece that encapsulates both Demuth's unique style and his ability to bring characters to life on paper. This artwork serves as a testament to Demuth's contribution to American painting during this era and continues to captivate audiences with its timeless charm.
