EDITORS COMMENTS
Anger," a powerful and evocative drawing by Eduardus Jacobus, created after 1698, captures the raw intensity of human emotion in the eighteenth century. The image, executed in red chalk with touches of graphite on tan laid paper, depicts a man in the throes of anger or fury. His face is contorted with rage, his eyes bulging and brows furrowed as he looks away, as if unable to bear the sight of the viewer. The wind, suggested by the disheveled hair and the swirling lines of the drawing, seems to add to the sense of turmoil and chaos. The man's body is depicted in dynamic and expressive form, with the muscles of his chest and arms tensed and his clenched fist adding to the sense of physicality and intensity. The title "Anger," written in bold, capitalized English text, serves to emphasize the concept of the emotion being portrayed. The use of red chalk and graphite adds to the richness and depth of the drawing, with the red chalk creating a sense of heat and passion, while the graphite adds subtle shading and detail. This powerful and evocative drawing is a testament to the expressive potential of the medium of drawing, and serves as a reminder of the enduring power of the human emotion of anger. It is a valuable addition to the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it can be appreciated by visitors as a testament to the heritage of art and the human experience. The drawing is a rare surviving example of the work of Eduardus Jacobus, a British artist active in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Its weathered appearance, with the tan laid paper showing through in places, only adds to its authenticity and sense of history. Overall, "Anger" is a striking and thought-provoking work that continues to resonate with viewers today.
