EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Artokoloro showcases the Greenwich Hospital recto Study Building on one side and a quick sketch on the verso. Created around 1831, this artwork combines watercolor and graphite on off white wove paper, measuring approximately 10 9/16 x 14 3/4 inches (26.8 x 37.5 cm). The artist behind this remarkable piece is David Cox, a British painter born in Birmingham in 1783. The main focus of the recto side is the Greenwich Hospital study building itself, depicted with meticulous attention to detail. The architectural elements are beautifully captured, including paired columns and touches of blue watercolor that represent the sky in the upper right corner. A brown wash adds depth to the pediment at its center while swift strokes of black and red describe figures dressed in naval uniforms. On the verso side, we find a quick sketch that brims with useful information for artists or enthusiasts alike. Although less detailed than its counterpart, it features a triangle shape filled with blue color denoting another section of sky. Artokoloro's print allows us to appreciate both sides of this intriguing artwork by David Cox – from his precise rendering of architecture to his skillful use of color and swift brushwork capturing figures in motion. This piece offers a glimpse into Cox's talent as well as providing historical context through its depiction of Greenwich Hospital during that era.
