EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "San Fernando, c. 1885-95" depicts a mesmerizing oil on canvas painting by Christian Jorgensen. The artwork measures 52.1x67.3 cm and is housed in the prestigious Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, CA, USA. The painting showcases Mission San Fernando Rey de Espana in California during a period between 1885 and 1895. With its atmospheric landscape and rural setting, the artwork beautifully captures the essence of twilight as it envelops the church and surrounding countryside. As dusk settles over the missionary site, we witness the dilapidated state of this Catholic structure against a backdrop of vibrant sunset hues. The ruins evoke a sense of history and nostalgia while highlighting the remote beauty of this North American location. Jorgensen's skillful brushwork brings to life both daybreak and nightfall scenes at Mission San Fernando Rey de Espana. From sunrise to dawn, he portrays the architectural details with precision while creating an ethereal silhouette that adds depth to his composition. This stunning painting transports viewers back in time to experience America's western heritage through its ruined chapels and monasteries. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural past amidst breathtaking natural surroundings. With its evocative portrayal of light and shadow, "San Fernando" stands as an exquisite example of American artistry from yesteryears—a testament to Jorgensen's talent for capturing fleeting moments in time through
