EDITORS COMMENTS
The Night, 1895" is a captivating woodcut print by the renowned Swiss artist Felix Vallotton, created during the 1890s. This striking image transports us back in time to the late 19th century, specifically to the United States or possibly Germany, as Vallotton spent significant time in both countries during his career. The composition of this masterpiece is a visual feast for the eyes, with the focus on a serene and quiet night scene. A lone figure, likely a man, is seen walking along a dimly lit path that winds its way through the grounds of a building or estate. The building, with its grand architecture and towering silhouette, looms in the background, adding a sense of mystery and intrigue to the scene. The use of contrasting white and black tones in "The Night, 1895" creates a dramatic and atmospheric effect, highlighting the beauty and tranquility of the nighttime scene. Vallotton's expert use of woodcut techniques on wove paper adds texture and depth to the image, making it a true work of art. This print is a testament to Vallotton's mastery of the woodcut medium and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time. It invites us to reflect on the passage of time and the beauty that can be found in the quiet moments of the night. Today, "The Night, 1895" is part of the esteemed collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences from around the world.
