EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Gloria, 1884" by Thomas Wilmer Dewing takes us on a journey into the realm of religious aestheticism. The painting, created with gouache over graphite, measures 30.8 x 27.8 cm and is housed in the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. In this ethereal composition, we are transported to a dreamlike setting where an angelic figure stands before us. With outstretched wings and a celestial halo above her head, she exudes an aura of spirituality and grace. Surrounding her are other winged beings forming a heavenly choir, playing harps and stringed instruments that emit delicate melodies. The scene is adorned with flowers, particularly lilies symbolizing purity and song. The women singers and players radiate joy as they praise through their harmonious music. Each stroke of Dewing's brush captures the melodious atmosphere perfectly. "Gloria" epitomizes the tonalism movement prevalent during its creation period - late 19th century America - emphasizing subtle variations in color tones to create atmospheric effects. This technique adds depth to the painting's overall ambiance. Through this mesmerizing artwork captured beautifully by Bridgeman Images' photo print, viewers can immerse themselves in a world where beauty intertwines with spirituality. It serves as a reminder of the power music holds in elevating our souls towards higher realms while celebrating purity and divine harmony within ourselves.
