EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Portrait of the Artist, No. 1,1905" is a remarkable creation by British artist Charles Hasslewood Shannon. Born in 1863 and passing away in 1937, Shannon was known for his exceptional talent in capturing the essence of his subjects through portraiture. In this particular piece, Shannon turns the spotlight on himself as he portrays an introspective image of an artist lost deep within their thoughts. The intensity in his eyes reflects a profound contemplation that seems to transcend time and space. With meticulous attention to detail, Shannon skillfully renders every line and shadow on his face, showcasing not only his technical mastery but also revealing glimpses of vulnerability. The composition exudes a sense of mystery and intrigue as it invites viewers to delve into the inner world of an artist's mind. The monochromatic palette adds a timeless quality to the print while emphasizing the play between light and dark. Acquired by The Cleveland Museum of Art from Heritage Art/Heritage Images collection, this lithograph serves as a testament to Shannon's significant contribution to early 20th-century British art. It stands as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences with its evocative portrayal. Displayed proudly among other heritage artworks at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this print offers visitors an opportunity to connect with one man's artistic journey while appreciating the enduring power of self-expression captured through visual arts.
