Oil on canvas
This painting, long thought to have been modeled for by Benson’s wife Ellen, is a lyrical study of a young woman representing the most brilliant season of the year. August-blue skies echo the blue of her gown. Her swirling scarves mingle with the billowing clouds. Two trees frame her figure like columns in a Greek temple. It is the work that most closely resembles the sort of paintings that Thayer continued to do until the end of his life. But in Benson’s paintings of women, there are no wings or halos. It is interesting that Benson essentially discontinued using motifs of such allegorical nature during his last year in Dublin.
As bedroom wall art, the piece pairs naturally with other romantic wall art and with warm neutrals, timber, and soft natural light.
Trained artists work in stages — underpainting, mid-tones, highlights, and detail — using traditional oils on canvas. Because nothing is printed, every hand painted oil painting has its own subtle texture and depth.
For bedroom wall art that does not feel generic, a painted fine art canvas is hard to beat. It is a popular fine art oil painting pick for new homeowners and a durable alternative to seasonal poster art.
In short: Summer - Frank Weston Benson - Canvas Wall Art combines a romantic composition, a 100% hand painted oil painting process, and the flexibility of made-to-order canvas sizes — a dependable choice for fine art oil painting and bedroom wall art.
