Moonflower & Copper Moth

"Moonflower & Copper Moth"—and its companion piece, "Moon, Persimmon & Moth"—emphasizes the Japanese aesthetic, which was so prevalent during the Arts & Crafts period. Prior to this time, American artists' representation of the landscape was a monumental, expansive view, like that of Bierstadt. After exposure to the tremendous influx of Japanese prints to America during the Arts & Crafts period, American artists began to express the Japanese sensibility in their work. A more personal landscape manifested, with closely cropped and asymmetrical compositions, very like that in this series of my work, which I call "Intimate Views of Nature." "Moonflower & Copper Moth" is an adaptation of an Alice Smith print, ca. 1912.
