Description
Truly magical portrait of his three children by American artist, naturalist and teacher Abbott Handerson Thayer (1849-1921). Described by some as 'eccentric', by others as 'unorthodox', Thayer deployed methods that were surprisingly 'modern', including mixing dirt into his paint, or (in one instance at least, according to Rockwell Kent) using a broom instead of a brush 'to lessen the sense of rigidity in a newly finished, still-wet painting.' Either way, this is a fabulous piece of work.
