Description:
|
Hartley returned in 1937 to Maine, where, except for stays in New York, he lived and worked for the rest of his life. He began an important series of expressionist "memory" portraits in 1938. This highly imaginative portrait of Ryder is Hartley’s posthumous tribute to the painter (who died in 1917), whose isolated, melancholy existence and financial poverty struck a sympathetic chord in him. In the portrait, Ryder appears frontal and isolated, like a saint or an icon. Hartley also composed a poem and several essays about artist, including one in which he describes the Ryder’s eyebrows as "lichens overhanging rocks of granite."
