Summer Days, 1916
EDITORS COMMENTS
by William Henry Dethlef Koerner captures the essence of a leisurely stroll in the countryside during the early twentieth century. In this oil painting, two companions, a man and a woman, are seen enjoying their time together amidst nature's beauty. The warm sunlight filters through the trees as they walk side by side, adjusting their attire to suit the pleasant weather. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the intricate clothing worn by both figures to the serene landscape surrounding them. The woman wears a sunhat and carries herself with grace while readjusting her dress. Meanwhile, her male companion exudes an air of relaxation and contentment. Koerner's artwork transports us back in time to an era when people found solace in simple pleasures and cherished moments spent outdoors. This idyllic scene evokes feelings of friendship, tranquility, and nostalgia for summers gone by. "Summer Days, 1916" is not just a beautiful piece of art; it also holds historical significance as it may have been created as an illustration for Alice Cowdrey's story "Robert". Its inclusion in Harper Monthly magazine further adds to its cultural value. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst our fast-paced lives today, taking time out for leisurely activities and appreciating nature can bring joy and fulfillment.
