Afternoon Pastimes
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Edward R. King, an artist active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This intimate portrait-style artwork measures 50.8x76.2 cm and depicts a serene scene of leisurely activities in the countryside. In this idyllic setting, we see a man and woman enjoying their time by the side of a river. The woman, with her brown hair cascading down her back, sits on the ground while reading a book, fully immersed in its pages. Meanwhile, the man rests his arm on a boat moored nearby, gazing at her affectionately. The natural light bathes the scene in warmth as it filters through the trees and illuminates their faces. The floral surroundings add to the peaceful ambiance of this summertime rendezvous. The composition highlights not only their physical closeness but also hints at an emotional connection between them - perhaps courtship or even love is blossoming amidst these afternoon pastimes. Edward R. King's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this exquisite oil painting. From their clothing choices to their facial expressions, he captures both the outer appearance and inner feelings of his subjects. This fine art print transports us back to another era when people found solace in nature's embrace and sought meaningful connections with one another through simple pleasures like reading by riverside banks.
