EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The American School, 1765" by the talented artist Matthew Pratt. Painted in the 18th century, this remarkable piece of art takes us back to a time when education and creativity flourished in America. The scene unfolds inside an art school where students are engrossed in their studies. In the foreground, we see a male student diligently working at his easel, fully immersed in his craft. His vibrant palette and collection of paintbrushes reveal his dedication to mastering the art of painting. Surrounding him are fellow artists, each absorbed in their own creative pursuits. The setting exudes a sense of history and heritage with its richly colored interiors and traditional dress worn by both students and teachers alike. It is evident that this studio serves as a hub for artistic growth and learning during this period. Matthew Pratt's self-portrait adds another layer of intrigue to the composition, showcasing himself as both an artist and educator within this bustling environment. This image provides us with a glimpse into the world of aspiring painters during colonial America. "The American School, 1765" is now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) in New York City, where it continues to inspire visitors from around the world with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
