Counted Out, first stone, 1921
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the raw intensity and drama of a boxing match in early 20th century America. Created by the talented artist George Wesley Bellows, this lithograph print showcases his mastery of realism and his ability to convey emotion through art. In this scene, we find ourselves ringside at a bustling boxing arena. The atmosphere is electric as spectators eagerly await the next round. The canvas tells a story of determination and resilience as two boxers face off in the center ring. One fighter lies on the ground, defeated and "counted out" while his opponent stands triumphantly over him. Bellows' attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the sweat glistening on the fighters' brows to the taut ropes that enclose them within their battleground. The referee's stern gaze ensures fairness while onlookers anxiously observe every move. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes clear that Bellows intended more than just a depiction of sport. Through his portrayal of strength and vulnerability, he invites us to reflect upon life's challenges and setbacks - those moments when we feel counted out but must summon our inner resilience to rise again. Displayed proudly at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "Counted Out, first stone" serves as a testament to Bellows' artistic brilliance and continues to captivate audiences with its timeless message of perseverance amidst adversity.
