Travelling Companion (Mr. Ch. Deering)
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Timeless Portrait of Charles Deering by Anders Leonard Zorn, 1904 This black and white etching on ivory laid paper, titled "Travelling Companion (Mr. Ch. Deering)" by renowned Swedish artist Anders Leonard Zorn, dates back to the early 20th century. The image transports us to a bygone era, as we gaze upon the introspective figure of Charles Deering, an American businessman and philanthropist, seated in the quiet confines of a railway carriage. Deering, dressed in the formal attire of the time, is engrossed in a book, his gaze focused intently on the pages before him. The etching masterfully captures the essence of travel, as the train rumbles along, carrying its solitary passenger through the vast expanses of the American countryside. The use of realism in this etching is evident in the intricate details of Deering's attire, the textured railway carriage, and the subtle play of light and shadow. Charles Deering was a man of considerable means, known for his philanthropy and extensive art collection. This portrait, a testament to Zorn's artistic prowess, is a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures of travel and the companionship of a good book. The etching, now housed in the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago, serves as a bridge to the past, inviting us to reflect on the experiences and emotions of a man who embodied the spirit of a bygone era. Zorn's "Travelling Companion (Mr. Ch. Deering)" is a timeless work of art that transcends the boundaries of place and time, offering a glimpse into the life of a man who, much like the train that carried him, left an indelible mark on history.
