EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Mr. William Waters, c. 1825/1830," is an exquisite work of art created by the talented American folk artist, Ruth Henshaw Bascom. The image, dating back to the 19th century, depicts a distinguished gentleman named Mr. William Waters, dressed in the fashion of the time. Bascom masterfully employed a combination of graphite, pastel, and watercolor on two sheets of adhered paper to bring this figure to life. Mr. Waters is depicted in profile, with a serious yet gentle expression on his face. He wears a dark coat, a white collar, and a simple white shirt, which were common articles of clothing during this period. The artist's use of black and white colors adds depth and contrast to the image, enhancing the overall effect. This naive art piece is a fascinating depiction of American culture and heritage during the 19th century. It is a testament to the creativity and artistic talent that existed in the United States during this time. The portrait is a must-see for anyone interested in American history, folk art, or the evolution of fashion clothing. Ruth Henshaw Bascom's "Mr. William Waters, c. 1825/1830" is currently on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. The portrait is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage that exists in the United States and the importance of preserving and showcasing such works for future generations.
