EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "The Artist's Mother" was created in 1902 by Joseph Edward Southall. The painting, done in tempera on panel, measures 48.5x35.5 cm and is currently housed at the Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery. In this intimate portrayal, we see a female figure exuding an air of austerity and strictness. The artist's mother sits with poise and elegance, her lace cap adding a touch of Victorian charm to her attire. A brooch adorns her necktie, while delicate jewelry graces her hands. The artist pays meticulous attention to detail as he captures his mother's features with precision and skill. Her expression is serene yet serious, reflecting the values of the era she lived in. Crochet work can be seen in the background, showcasing both the artistic talent of the subject herself and perhaps hinting at a domestic setting that was common for women during that time period. Southall masterfully uses light and shadow to create depth within this portrait. His use of tempera paint gives it a unique texture that adds richness to every stroke. "The Artist's Mother" stands as a testament to Southall's ability to capture not only physical likeness but also convey emotion through his artistry. This timeless piece continues to captivate viewers today with its exquisite craftsmanship and glimpse into Victorian life.
