EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "Three-Panel Screen (reverse)" by Charles Prendergast, an American artist from the early twentieth century. Painted around 1916-17, this oil and gold leaf masterpiece measures 190.5 x 69.2cm and is currently held in a private collection. The image depicts three panels of gessoed wood adorned with intricate details and vibrant colors. A group of musicians, both young women and adults, are shown side by side playing various musical instruments such as pipes and wind instruments. The golden wings on their backs give them an angelic appearance while adding to the overall decorative appeal of the piece. The use of gold leaf adds a touch of opulence to the painting, enhancing its religious undertones. The blue background symbolizes spirituality while the red accents bring warmth and energy to the composition. Prendergast's skillful brushwork captures not only the physicality but also the joyous spirit of music-making within this small group of people. Each musician is depicted in full length, highlighting their dedication to their craft. Overall, this artwork represents a beautiful fusion between Christian symbolism and early twentieth-century aesthetics. It serves as a testament to Prendergast's talent as an American artist who expertly crafted this exquisite panel screen using oil paint on gessoed wood with meticulous attention to detail.
