Late Evening

미술관의 설명

This dark landscape is difficult to parse due to its shaded and overlapping forms. Peets was a skilled printmaker who practiced many techniques but avoided experimentation, preferring to perfect his art in the established tradition. This image suggests this practice in its use of mezzotint: the various layers blend together and add softness around the edges of forms that evoke wilderness during the late hours of the day. While in high school, Peets created political cartoons that were published in The Cleveland Leader and The London Daily Mail.
