フィラデルフィア美術館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (フィラデルフィア美術館Instagram)「S. L. (Shield Landon) Jones depicted his life and world in much of his art, including his faith as a devout Primitive Baptist, a Christian denomination that believes God could call on anyone to be a minister. Boldly carving his figures and bringing them to life with muted colors, Jones avoided the kind of surface details that might have given them a greater sense of naturalness, opting instead for a solid, dignified monumentality and presence. Dressed in everyday clothes, this preacher and his wife are here in this room as if they themselves chose to share our space and address us with the force of their convictions. 🔎 See this and other works in "Of God and Country: American Art from the Jill and Sheldon Bonovitz Collection" in the Korman Family Galleries and Field Galleries "Preacher and His Wife," date unknown, S.L. Jones Collection of Jill and Sheldon Bonovitz, Promised Gift to the Philadelphia Museum of Art」7月21日 22時14分
