Description |
Oil painted photograph colored by Lloyd Branson. It shows the full figure of a woman standing on a country path with ducks in the grass. She wears a farm dress and carries a pail in her left arm. Lloyd Branson (1853–1925) is one of Knoxville’s most celebrated artists. After studying art in New York and abroad, he returned to Knoxville, and by 1880, he had helped open the McCrary and Branson Studio, which created photographic and painted portraits. In addition to more formal portraits and history paintings, he sometimes executed more informal everyday scenes and landscapes, such as this young woman tending a farm. |
