EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white lithograph, titled "Model Seated on the Floor" by Thomas Robert Way, dates back to the late 19th century and transports us to the studios of England's artistic past. The image captures a young woman in deep concentration as she sits on a worn wooden floor, surrounded by the textured folds of her flowing skirt and the intricate patterns of the floorboards beneath her. Way's masterful use of lithography, specifically lithotint and transfer lithography on ivory wove paper, brings the scene to life with striking contrasts and delicate detail. The Model, with her unassuming yet determined expression, embodies the quiet intensity of the artistic process. Her posture and the simple setting suggest a moment of stillness and reflection, perhaps during a lengthy pose for a painting or drawing. The image invites us to consider the relationship between the artist and their subject, the creative process, and the passage of time. This work of art is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Britain and the enduring allure of the human form. It is an invaluable addition to any collection of 19th-century art, and a poignant reminder of the dedication and passion that drives artists to capture the essence of their subjects. The Art Institute of Chicago is proud to house this exquisite lithograph in its vast and diverse collection of prints and drawings. It is a treasure for art enthusiasts, historians, and anyone seeking a glimpse into the world of art and creativity during the late 1800s.
