","remarks":null},{"texttype":"Online","textpurpose":"Gallery Label","textentryhtml":"One of only about two dozen watercolors by the Philadelphia artist Thomas Eakins, Seventy Years Ago attests to his mastery of the medium, combining delicately and precisely rendered details with free and spontaneous brushwork. This interior scene shares with several of Eakins’s paintings from the 1870s a focus on the concentrated engagement between head and hands, whether seen in knitting, rowing a scull, or playing a piano. The inclusion of the tilt-top table and Chippendale chair reflects the artist’s interest in early America, an era then being reexplored as part of the patriotic and nostalgic Colonial Revival inspired by the nation’s centennial in 1876.","remarks":"MEB rotation June 2019"}],"datebegin":1877,"sortnumber":"1957 118x","published_date":"2026-02-11 08:28:47.264119","objectid":9793,"dimensions":"39.8 x 27.4 cm (15 11/16 x 10 13/16 in.)","on_view":false}
