John George Brown, 1904 - Boat Builder - fine art print

Original artwork description by the museum (© Copyright - by The Cleveland Museum of Art - The Cleveland Museum of Art)

Brown's preference for rural subjects in a time when the United States was undergoing rapid industrialization suggests nostalgia for the past. Indeed, Boat Builder, an image of an elderly craftsman working alone with hand tools in a tranquil setting replete with his sleeping dog, offered its contemporary audience a distinct alternative to mechanized factory production.
