EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork titled "Figurehead: 'Jolly Tar'" created by Mary E Humes in the 1930s. The vibrant blue background sets the stage for this American heritage art piece, which depicts a fictional character known as Jolly Tar. Standing tall and proud, this male figurehead captures the essence of a sailor with his hand confidently placed on his hip. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this watercolor on paper creation. From the intricate clothing and coat to the carefully drawn facial features, Humes brings this nautical character to life. Dressed in a red jacket and trousers, Jolly Tar exudes strength and resilience. As we gaze at this close-up portrayal, it's impossible not to be captivated by his posture and expression. Looking up towards an unseen horizon, he embodies both determination and curiosity about what lies ahead. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, USA, this artwork stands as a testament to Humes' artistic talent and her contribution to American art history. Princess Rosetta is another notable work by Mary E Humes featured alongside Figurehead: 'Jolly Tar' within the gallery's collection. With its rich colors and meticulous details, this print invites us into a world where imagination meets reality—a tribute to seafaring traditions that have shaped America's cultural identity throughout history.
