EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite woodcut print, titled "Tribute - Long Dead," is a poignant work by the talented artist Florence Mary Anderson, known professionally as Molly MacArthur. Created in 1925, this artwork represents a significant shift in MacArthur's illustration style. Having previously gained acclaim for her intricately decorative fairy art during the early 1920s, she transitioned to a more minimalist and monochromatic approach. The image before you is a testament to MacArthur's mastery of the woodcut technique in monotone. The delicate lines and subtle shading create a sense of depth and texture that is both captivating and serene. The oriental influence in her new style is evident in the intricate patterns and the overall composition of the piece. MacArthur's name was credited to Molly McArthur for this particular work. The title "Tribute - Long Dead" adds an air of mystery and contemplation, inviting the viewer to ponder the meaning behind the image. The date of 1925 marks a pivotal moment in MacArthur's artistic journey, as she moved away from the ornate, colorful illustrations of her past and embraced a more simplistic, monochromatic aesthetic. This beautiful woodcut print is a rare and captivating glimpse into the evolution of Molly MacArthur's artistic style during the 1920s. It serves as a tribute not only to her artistic talent but also to the enduring beauty of the woodcut medium.
