Part of Exhibit "Marsden Hartley's Maine," July 8-November 12, 2017. This trio of dashing young "blades" underscores Hartley's pattern of sanctifying his Maine subjects, presenting them as saintlike, complete with regionally appropriate attributes. One figure holds a mackerel, a fish commonly used as lobster bait, while another grasps a lobster, suggesting that one is trying to attract the other; a coded homoerotic content.
