I'll Think of Thee Love!
EDITORS COMMENTS
, a captivating lithograph created by American artist John Henry Bufford in 1841, presents a poignant scene of a young woman standing at the edge of a balcony, lost in thought as she gazes out into the distance. The image, a lithograph on cream wove paper with stitches removed to join two additional sheets and a music score, is a testament to the power of love and the bittersweet longing it can evoke. Bufford's masterful use of lithotint and the intricate details of the architectural feature in the background transport us to a bygone era, inviting us to ponder the story behind the young woman's melancholic expression. The image, now part of the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago's collection, has become a beloved piece of heritage art and a symbol of the enduring power of literature and poetry to inspire art. The title of the work, "I'll Think of Thee Love!", suggests a promise or a declaration of love, adding an extra layer of depth to the image. The image has become a favorite among art enthusiasts, art historians, and anyone who has ever experienced the bittersweet pangs of love and longing. Bufford's "I'll Think of Thee Love!" is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the United States and the power of art to transport us to another time and place, allowing us to connect with the human experience in a deeply personal way. Whether viewed in person at the Art Institute of Chicago or in reproduction, this stunning work of art continues to captivate and inspire audiences around the world.
