EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of Caroline Durand, a young girl with an intriguing story to tell. Painted in 1827 by renowned artist Asher Brown Durand, this exquisite print showcases his remarkable talent for capturing the soulful expressions of his subjects. Caroline Durand, born in 1826 and passing away in 1902, was not just any ordinary child. As the eldest daughter of Asher B. Durand himself, she held a special place within their artistic family lineage. In this intimate portrayal, we see her seated gracefully before a chessboard - a symbol of intellect and strategy that hints at her potential as she grows older. The monochrome palette adds depth to the image, emphasizing every delicate feature on Caroline's face. Her youthful innocence shines through her eyes while also hinting at an underlying wisdom beyond her years. Surrounded by toys and baby trinkets that speak to her tender age, Caroline exudes both vulnerability and strength simultaneously. This portrait is more than just a snapshot; it is a testament to the beauty found in childhood moments frozen in time. Displayed proudly within the New-York Historical Society's collection in the USA, this print serves as a reminder of Caroline's legacy as well as Asher B. Durand's mastery behind capturing human emotion on canvas. It invites us into their world - one filled with love for artistry and appreciation for life's fleeting moments.
