EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of creativity and camaraderie at the Salmagundi Club in 1879. The setting is J. Scott Hartley's studio, nestled in the vibrant Greenwich Village. Amidst an atmosphere buzzing with artistic energy, a boxing match unfolds during a sketch session. The composition showcases nine distinguished individuals who were part of this bohemian gathering. From left to right, we see Will H. Low, John Hartley, J. Scott Hartley himself, Joseph Hartley, William Denslow, William Henry Shelton, M. J. Burns, H. P. Share, and Alfred Beck. Their diverse talents span various artistic disciplines - from sculptor to drawer - reflecting the eclectic nature of this late 19th-century art movement in America. The watercolor and gouache technique employed by Will H. Low adds depth and richness to the image while capturing the essence of these men engrossed in their creative pursuits. This photograph not only immortalizes a specific moment but also serves as a testament to the spirit of collaboration that thrived within this esteemed club's walls. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot today, it reminds us of the power that art possesses to bring people together across time and space – transcending boundaries through shared passion for self-expression and creativity.
