Lover of the Sun

photo

This is a reproduction of "Lover of the Sun" by Henry Scott Tuke of 1923.  The artist was a native of Cornwall who died in 1929 at the age of seventy-one years. This picture is quite demonstrative of his famous focus. His twin abiding loves were the sea and boys. This caused quite a stir in Victorian and Edwardian England, but he was nonetheless a member of the Royal Academy. This painting was created in the artist's studio in Falmouth.

Wrestlers, Thomas Eakins

photo

This is a reproduction of Thomas Eakins’ classic, “Wrestlers” of 1899.  This is one of Eakins’ greatest works and the lst completed genre painting.  It dramatically portrays interplay of masculine muscles in a wrestling match apparently being waged in a gymnasium.  It is the last sports painting of the master as well as his last study of the male form.  Eakins was fifty-five years old when this was completed.  This major work is an American expression of the realistic academicians yet it has subtle marks which extend it into a more modern realm.  The half figures cut off by the right frame, the meandering length of rope in the background and the juxtaposition of taut and loosened skin all point to a modern eye.  Thomas Eakins died seventeen years after he produced this painting which is in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
