EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Winter Scene in Moonlight, 1869" by Henry Farrer takes us on a journey through a serene and enchanting landscape. The artist's use of watercolor and gouache on white wove paper brings out the ethereal beauty of this wintry scene. In this artwork, we are transported to a moonlit night in New England. The dark silhouette of trees stands tall against the snowy ground, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and mystery. A gentle stream meanders through the landscape, reflecting the soft glow of the moon above. Farrer's painting style combines elements of primitivism and naivety, giving this piece a unique charm. The asymmetry in composition adds to its artistic appeal, drawing our eyes towards different focal points within the scene. As an English-born artist who later settled in Brooklyn, Farrer captures his surroundings with great affection. This particular artwork is believed to represent a site in Brooklyn where he spent most of his life. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this painting showcases Farrer's talent as an American watercolorist. It exemplifies his contribution to founding the American Watercolor Society and highlights his mastery over nocturnal scenes. With its delicate details and evocative mood, "Winter Scene in Moonlight" invites viewers to immerse themselves into its tranquil world while appreciating nature's beauty even during colder seasons.
