EDITORS COMMENTS
by Charles Samuel Keene captures a bustling scene in 19th century England. In this black and white pen and ink drawing, we are transported to a vibrant market where trade and conversation thrive. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts the clothing and accessories of the era. A man stands at the center of the composition, his overcoat draped over his arm while he engages in animated conversation with another gentleman. Both men are engrossed in their discussion, their gestures conveying passion and enthusiasm for their topic. The artist's use of brown ink adds warmth to the image, contrasting beautifully against the white gouache accents. The market setting comes alive through Keene's meticulous rendering of people going about their daily activities. From individuals listening intently to others speaking, to shoppers browsing stalls filled with goods, every figure contributes to a sense of movement and energy within this outdoor space. As we observe this snapshot from history, we can almost hear snippets of conversations carried on umbrellas that shield passersby from occasional rain showers. This artwork not only offers us a glimpse into life during that time but also serves as a testament to Keene's talent for capturing human interaction with such authenticity. Displayed proudly at an art institute in Chicago today, "Upon the Mart" continues to be admired for its historical significance and artistic brilliance.
