EDITORS COMMENTS
Anders Leonard Zorn's captivating photograph, Augustus Saint-Gaudens II (Saint-Gaudens and His Model), 1897, offers a rare glimpse into the intimate world of renowned American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens and his model. The black and white etching on ivory laid paper, created by the Swedish artist Zorn, captures the artist in his bedchamber, deep in thought as he examines the female model's form. The model, seated on the bed, wears a simple dress, her bare feet resting on the floor. Saint-Gaudens, dressed in a shirt and trousers, is engrossed in the task at hand, his intense focus evident on his face. This image is a testament to the Beaux-Arts artistic movement, which emphasized the importance of realistic representation and the study of classical art. The realist approach is evident in the intricate details of the textures and folds of the clothing, as well as the naturalistic portrayal of the human body. The photograph was taken in the late 19th century, a time when the arts were undergoing a significant shift towards modernism and a greater emphasis on individual expression. The image of Saint-Gaudens and his model in this intimate setting reflects the changing attitudes towards the artistic process and the role of the model in the creation of art. The photograph is now part of the collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and intrigue visitors from around the world. The image's enduring appeal lies in its ability to transport us back in time, offering a glimpse into the world of a great artist and the creative process itself.
