EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "Meditation, 1904" by Aby Altson. The oil on canvas artwork, measuring 54x39.5 cm, showcases a serene scene that transports viewers to an early twentieth-century outdoor setting. In this portrait-style painting, a British artist of Australian descent skillfully depicts a female figure deep in meditation. The composition is enriched with vibrant floral elements surrounding the meditating woman, emphasizing her connection with nature. With bare feet and dressed in pink attire, she exudes tranquility as she leans on her elbow and rests her arm on a tambourine – perhaps hinting at her musical inclinations. Altson's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; his mastery of color and light brings life to the painting. The artist's use of red hair for the subject adds an intriguing contrast against the backdrop of flowers and foliage. The photograph itself beautifully captures this timeless piece from Christie's Private Collection. It allows us to appreciate Altson's artistic prowess while providing insight into his unique style that seamlessly blends European influences with his Australian heritage. Whether displayed within interior décor or admired as part of a fine art collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the world created by Aby Altson over a century ago – where meditation meets music-making amidst blooming beauty and peaceful contemplation.
