EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning monochrome artwork by the renowned French artist Leon-Augustin Lhermitte. This masterpiece, created towards the end of the 19th century, beautifully captures the essence of the season in a rural setting. The image is a captivating blend of black charcoal and brown pastel, bringing depth and texture to the scene. In the foreground, a group of girls in traditional country attire are seen playing amongst a lush, green landscape. They are dressed in simple, flowing fabrics that rustle gently in the spring breeze. In the background, a man and a boy stand near a tree, perhaps tending to the land or enjoying the beauty of the season. The trees in the background are in full bloom, their branches adorned with vibrant green leaves and delicate pink blossoms. The grass beneath their feet is a rich, vibrant green, and the texture of the fabric of the girls' dresses is beautifully rendered in the charcoal and pastel. The artwork exudes a sense of tranquility and joy, as the girls laugh and play in the warm spring sun. The use of charcoal and pastel adds a sense of timelessness to the scene, transporting us back to a simpler time. This artwork is a testament to Lhermitte's skill as a draftsman and his ability to capture the beauty of nature in its most simple and pure form. It is a must-see for anyone interested in 19th century art, and a beautiful addition to any art centre or gallery collection. Spring, c. 1880 is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., and is a beloved piece of French heritage art that continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world.
