EDITORS COMMENTS
A Genealogical Family Piece, 1811 Creator: Lydia Smith (1780-1865) This exquisite pen and ink drawing with watercolor and brown ink on cream wove paper, laid down on fabric, is a testament to the rich heritage of American family art from the 19th century. Created by Lydia Smith in 1811, this three-generational family portrait is a unique blend of nature, artistry, and the deep connections that bind families together. The drawing, titled "A Genealogical Family Piece," showcases a heart-shaped garland of flowers and plants, encircling three generations of a family. At the center, the matriarch and patriarch are depicted in profile, their faces etched with the wisdom and experience of age. Their children, arranged around them, are shown in a loving embrace, symbolizing the strong bonds that unite them. The intricate details of the drawing are brought to life through Lydia Smith's skillful use of pen and ink, with delicate touches of watercolor and brown ink. The color palette is dominated by cream, orange, and brown tones, reflecting the natural beauty of the flowers and the earthy warmth of the family's connection. The drawing is a poignant reminder of the importance of family history and the enduring legacy of love and relationships that span generations. Lydia Smith's "A Genealogical Family Piece" is a cherished work of art that continues to captivate and inspire viewers at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is housed as part of their impressive collection of prints and drawings.
