EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Side Altar, San Luis Rey Mission, 1936" takes us back to the enchanting atmosphere of a bygone era. Created by the talented artist Howard H. Sherman, this piece showcases his mastery in capturing the essence of American heritage art. The image transports us inside the San Luis Rey Mission, a place where spirituality and artistic beauty intertwine seamlessly. The side altar depicted here is adorned with an array of statues that exude reverence and devotion. Each statue stands as a testament to the rich Christian tradition that has shaped America's cultural landscape. Sherman's use of watercolor colored pencil gouache and graphite on paper adds depth and vibrancy to every detail within this composition. The multi-colored palette brings life to each element, from the intricate design of the altar itself to the delicate features of each statue. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of its historical significance but also its timeless appeal. It serves as a window into an era when religious faith played a central role in shaping communities across our great nation. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art, this print invites viewers to appreciate both Sherman's artistic talent and America's rich religious heritage. It serves as a reminder that art can transcend time and space, allowing us to connect with our past while inspiring future generations with its enduring beauty.
