More about this artwork

"The Sky Simulated" by Abbott Handerson Thayer is a compelling and expressive portrayal of a sunset scene, marked by its rich and vibrant use of color. The painting commands attention primarily through its dramatic sky, which spans a gradient of warm orange hues mingling into softer creams and whites, suggesting the fading light of dusk. Below this brilliant sky are the silhouetted forms of the landscape and vegetation, dominated by a single palm tree standing prominently against the backdrop of the setting sun.The lower part of the painting is steeped in shadow, with varying tones of dark purples and blacks, adding a mysterious and somewhat somber contrast to the luminous sky. This shadowy terrain hints at an undefined landscape, possibly a hillside or a distant coast, populated sparsely with other smaller forms of vegetation, possibly trees or shrubs.Thayer's use of contrasting light and dark not only emphasizes the sunset but also adds emotional depth and a sense of tranquility, capturing the serene but fleeting moments of twilight. The whole scene could be seen as a reflection on the natural beauty and the ephemeral quality of everyday moments, inviting viewers to pause and reflect on the interplay of light and darkness in nature.

Abbott Handerson Thayer (1849-1921) was an American artist, naturalist and teacher. He grew up in a wealthy Boston family and was a leader of the NY art world, selling portraits and allegorical figures to European Renaissance collectors. His art changed drastically when his wife died, when he moved to a colony of artists settled in Dublin, New Hampshire. He painted landscapes, delicate flowers, and idealistic paintings of women as angels and madonnas.
