"6 cm: A Glimpse into the Artistic Legacy of Lorens Pasch Younger and Edwards Curtis" Step back in time as we explore the captivating world captured within a mere 6 cm. From the brushstrokes of Swedish painter Lorens Pasch Younger to the lens of American photographer Edwards Curtis, these artists transport us to different eras and cultures. King Adolf Fredrik's reign comes alive through Pasch Younger's masterpieces, showcasing his remarkable talent for capturing royal portraits. Meanwhile, Curtis takes us on a visual journey to Nootka, where he immortalizes the sea and its inhabitants with breathtaking precision. The Dancing Mask from Nootka mesmerizes viewers with its intricate details, while Makah Profile offers an intimate glimpse into Native American life during that period. The Old Makah portrait evokes a sense of wisdom and resilience etched upon weathered faces. Haida Kung transports us to another indigenous community with its striking imagery, while Makah Woman captures the strength and grace of Native American women. Seattle's spirit is palpable in Curtis' photograph depicting Makah tribespeople against a backdrop of their ancestral lands. Traveling further back in time, we encounter an intriguing etching from 1625-77 that showcases religious symbolism through Carrying Cross. Moving forward again, mid-16th century drawings reveal stunning initial letters adorned with dolphins and crowns or lions and crowns - testaments to artistic craftsmanship during this era. In just 6 cm of space lies an expansive universe waiting to be discovered. Join us on this visual odyssey as we delve into history through artistry at its finest.
