EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating graphite drawing by the renowned American artist, John La Farge. This masterpiece is a preliminary sketch for a larger work, showcasing the artist's exceptional skill and creativity. The allegorical figure of Commerce is depicted as an ancient Greek goddess, surrounded by cherubs and amorini. She is shown holding the caduceus, a symbol of commerce and prosperity, while standing on a boat filled with boats. The mythical beasts and mythological creatures in the background add an element of intrigue and depth to the composition. John La Farge, a prominent figure in the American artistic scene of the 19th century, was known for his allegorical works that often drew inspiration from Greek mythology. This study is a testament to his ability to bring myth and history to life through his art. The delicate and precise lines in the drawing, combined with the rich detail and shading, create a sense of depth and texture that is truly captivating. This drawing is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a glimpse into the artistic school of the late 1800s and the cultural heritage of America. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is fortunate to have this study as part of its extensive collection, allowing visitors to appreciate the artistic vision and skill of John La Farge. This black and white drawing is a reminder of the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place, and to inspire our imaginations.
