EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Benjamin West's First Effort in Art" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the early artistic endeavors of one of America's most renowned painters. Created by Edward Matthew Ward for the "Illustrated London News" on May 12,1849, this wood engraving transports us to Benjamin West's humble bedchamber. In this intimate setting, we witness a young boy engrossed in his creative pursuits. With a quill pen in hand and surrounded by books and newspapers, he sits at his crib-turned-desk, diligently sketching with remarkable talent beyond his years. The room exudes an air of literary inspiration as peacock feathers adorn the walls, adding an element of elegance to this domestic scene. The image not only showcases Benjamin West's prodigious artistic abilities but also highlights the nurturing environment that fostered his talent. It serves as a testament to the power of creativity within even the youngest members of society. Today, this historic artwork can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) in New York City. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded of how art transcends time and place while celebrating both individual genius and collective heritage.
