At their home on a little coffee farm on the edge of the Colombian rainforest, Elwes painted dioramas of the forest in an attempt to express our deep connection to the natural world. He also made endless nude drawings of his wife. It was a response to seeing Lewanne so profoundly immersed in her environment, he says, a desire to record the naturalness and sense of freedom she exhibited by walking around naked. It began to occur to him that women are so fundamentally connected to nature, through their physiological and mythical relationship to the moon and in motherhood, that they more perfectly embody this connectivity than a tree or a mountain.

  • Robert Henri American / Estadounidense, 1865–1929 Beatrice Whittaker Oil on Canvas, 1919
    Daniel Garber American / Estadounidense, 1880–1958 Junior Camp Oil on board, ca. 1924 Daniel Garber served on the faculty of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts for over forty years. He started as a student in 1899, studying with William Merritt Chase. After being awarded a scholarship that allowed him to study in Europe for two years, he returned to Philadelphia in 1907, where he was first hired by Emily Sartain to teach at the Philadelphia School of Design for Women. This painting demonstrates a shift in Garber’s style, as he is known for his Impressionist landscapes. In the 1920s, Garber began experimenting with a heavier stitch-like brushstroke, as seen here, in one of his many depictions of the Delaware River embankment near his home and studio. Campamento juvenil Óleo sobre tabla, ca. 1924 Daniel Garber formó parte del cuerpo docente de la Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts durante más de cuarenta años. Comenzó como estudiante en 1899 y fue alumno de William Merritt Chase. Tras estudiar en Europa durante dos años gracias a una beca, regresó en 1907 a Filadelfia, donde fue contratado por primera vez por Emily Sartain para impartir clases en la Philadelphia School of Design for Women. Esta pintura pone de manifiesto un cambio estilístico en Garber, conocido por sus paisajes impresionistas. En la década de 1920, Garber comenzó a experimentar con pinceladas más empastadas, semejantes a puntadas, como se aprecia aquí en una de sus muchas representaciones del dique del río Delaware, cercano a su hogar y estudio.
