Afternoon Stroll, Summer
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Maurice Brazil Prendergast that captures the essence of a leisurely summer day in the late 19th century. The artwork, measuring 51.4x61 cm, depicts a large group of people enjoying an outdoor walk in the outskirts of town. The elevated view allows us to observe the scene from above, revealing a bustling street filled with women and girls adorned in fashionable attire. The vibrant colors and loose brushstrokes characteristic of Prendergast's style bring life to this charming depiction of summertime. As we gaze at the painting, we are transported back in time to witness this moment of tranquility and physical activity amidst nature. The artist skillfully portrays the joyous atmosphere through his attention to detail - from the sunshades and parasols carried by some women as they shield themselves from the afternoon sun, to others walking hand-in-hand or engaging in conversation. The building exteriors and lush trees provide a picturesque backdrop for this lively scene. It is evident that Prendergast was influenced by both American Impressionism and Ashcan School movements as he masterfully captures light, movement, and human interaction within his composition. This print offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but still resonates with its timeless charm. "Afternoon Stroll, Summer" invites us to appreciate not only the beauty of nature but also our shared experiences as individuals seeking solace and companionship during warm summer days.
