Boston Public Garden Watercolors
From 1895 to 1897, Maurice Prendergast filled the pages of a folio album with drawings in watercolor, pencil, and pen and ink, sketched on-site in the Boston Public Garden. His radiant images captured the carefree recreation of cossetted children and their adoring families in beguiling snapshots. Several of the sketches originated ideas for advertisements, while others laid out subjects for monotype printmaking.
