EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Academy" showcases the exquisite artistry of John Hamilton Mortimer. Created with graphite on paper, this masterpiece measures 31.4x48.9 cm and is housed at the Yale Center for British Art in the USA, thanks to the generous support of the Paul Mellon Fund. The image depicts a scene of intense study and artistic exploration within an academy setting. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings forth a sense of drama and raw emotion as he captures the human form in all its nakedness and vulnerability. The composition features a reclining male figure posing on a bed, surrounded by various pieces of furniture and furnishings that add depth to the narrative. Mortimer's skillful use of pencil creates striking contrasts between light and shadow, enhancing every contour and muscle tone. While nudity takes center stage in this artwork, it serves as a testament to Mortimer's dedication to life drawing and his ability to capture human anatomy with precision. The inclusion of genitalia adds another layer of authenticity to this intimate portrayal. Overall, "An Academy" invites viewers into a world where artistry meets sensuality, challenging societal norms while celebrating the beauty found within our own bodies. This print from Bridgeman Images offers an opportunity for art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Mortimer's talent without any commercial implications attached.
