Proud Maisie, 1893
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait that captures the essence of female strength and emotion. In this stunning print by Anthony Frederick Augustus Sandys, we are introduced to a young girl who exudes both pride and sorrow. The artist skillfully depicts the subject with pencil and red chalk on paper, bringing out every intricate detail of her expression. The young girl's hair is delicately drawn, but it is her biting on its end that adds an element of anger and frustration to the composition. Inspired by Walter Scott's poem "Proud Maisie" this artwork beautifully portrays the conflicting emotions experienced by women in society. The model for this painting was none other than Mary Jones, Sandys' lover and mother to nine of his children. This personal connection adds depth to the piece as we can imagine the artist capturing not only physical features but also complex feelings shared between them. As we gaze at this image, we cannot help but be drawn into the world of Proud Maisie. Her furrowed brow hints at a hidden rage while simultaneously showcasing her resilience in face of adversity. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of boredom or sorrow, there lies immense power within each woman. Sandys masterfully explores themes such as pride, symbolic meaning, and human emotion through his exquisite drawing technique. This print invites us to reflect upon our own feelings and experiences while appreciating artistry that transcends time.
