EDITORS COMMENTS
In the Studio, before 1887" captures a whimsical and intriguing scene from the late 19th century. Created by Arnoldo Tamburini, this oil painting showcases an artist's workspace filled with captivating details. The studio is adorned with various artistic accessories, reflecting the educational institution where creativity flourishes. A bust of a distinguished figure gazes upon the room, while an easel proudly displays an unfinished canvas. The vibrant colors and intricate clothing worn by the individuals add to the lively atmosphere. In this peculiar setting, we find a male figure gesturing humorously towards a naked man covered only in leopard skin. This unexpected juxtaposition between nudity and religious symbolism raises questions about societal norms and challenges conventional perceptions of art. A priest stands nearby, seemingly unfazed by the unconventional scene unfolding before him. The presence of religious figures within this scientific institution adds another layer of complexity to Tamburini's work. Amidst all these elements lies a sense of playfulness and satire that permeates throughout the composition. It invites viewers to contemplate themes such as heritage art, interior design choices, and even kitsch aesthetics prevalent during that era. "In the Studio" serves as both a snapshot into Tamburini's artistic process and as a commentary on society at large during his time. With its rich historical context combined with imaginative elements, this artwork continues to captivate audiences today at Smithsonian American Art Museum.
