About the Item

Lithograph on vélin paper. Unsigned and unnumbered, as issued. Good condition. Published and printed by Art in America, New York in an edition of CDVII/D. From the folio, The Four Seasons, Paintings and Drawings by Andrew Wyeth, 1962. Excerpted from the folio, In 1962 the editors of Art in America proposed to Wyeth a portfolio of reproductions of his recent dry-brush drawings. The artist and his wife suggested the theme, "The Four Seasons," because of the essential role played in his work by the cycle of the seasons. The drawings were selected by Andrew and Betsy Wyeth from works in the house and studio at Chadds Ford, supplemented by some owned by friends. With a few exceptions they had never been exhibited or reproduced. The plates were made directly from the originals. In these drawings Wyeth's loving concentration on the object is fully revealed. But as always in his work, this concern with the tangible is balanced by sensibility to mood, to the emotion arising from the actual. They are pervaded with a sense of the season-the exact time of year, the hour of the day, the quality of the light. To the truth and subtlety with which he captures these intangible factors, these drawings owe their poignant poetry. Each has its individual mood. The thin sunlight and faint warmth of early spring in Spring Sun, the stir of returning life in New Leaves, the full flowering of spring in Quaker Ladies. A summer morning's sea fog in Burning Off, the drowsy ripeness of August in The Berry Picker. The serene melancholy of fall in Teel's Island, the lingering golden light of Early October. Finally, the white hush of snow, transforming the familiar world, blanketing the cold earth beneath which the seed sleeps. ANDREW WYETH (1917-2009) was an American visual artist, primarily a realist painter, working predominantly in a regionalist style. He believed he was also an abstractionist, portraying subjects in a new, meaningful way. The son of N. C. Wyeth and father of Jamie Wyeth, he was one of the best-known U.S. artists of the middle 20th century. James H. Duff explores the art and lives of the three men in An American Vision: Three Generations of Wyeth Art. Raised with an appreciation of nature, Wyeth took walks that fired his imagination. Henry David Thoreau, Robert Frost, and King Vidor's The Big Parade (1925) inspired him intellectually and artistically. Wyeth featured in a documentary The Metaphor in which he discussed Vidor's influence on the creation of his works of art, like Winter 1946 and Portrait of Ralph Kline. Wyeth was also inspired by Winslow Homer and Renaissance artists.
