More about this artwork

"By the Caliban" (1919-1920) by Arthur Bowen Davies is a compelling piece of art that conveys a sense of dynamic movement and ethereal grace. This monochromatic painting portrays a grouping of figures, mostly nude, intertwined in what appears to be a dance or a ritual. The figures are rendered with fluid lines and soft silhouettes, suggesting motion and the flexibility of the human form.Davies' work often explored themes of mysticism and mythology, and "By the Caliban" hints at such mythical narratives. The composition seems to depict a scene of chaotic yet harmonious interaction, resonating with the theme of Caliban—a character from Shakespeare's "The Tempest" known for his wild and primitive nature. The artwork invites viewers to delve into a world where the boundary between the earthly and the supernatural blurs.This piece serves as a reflection of Davies' broader artistic endeavors, where dreamlike quality and allegorical elements frequently surface.
