  • Artist And Visionary William Matthew Prior Revealed At American Folk Art Museum
    January 15, 2013

    Cherubic and solemn faces of Nineteenth Century children by artist William Matthew Prior catch and steal a viewer’s eye. Prior’s portraits of adults are more severe, documenting the life of coastal New England from Maine to Boston, but they, too, compel. Portraits by the prolific folk artist are the subject of the exhibition “Artist and Visionary: William Matthew Prior Revealed” on view at the American Folk Art Museum in New York City through May 26. The first exhibit devoted solely to Prior’s work, “Artist and Visionary” was organized originally by the Fenimore Art Museum in Cooperstown, N.Y. It brings more than 40 oil paintings by the artist whose known works number well over 1,500, and whose yet undiscovered work could increase that number markedly. The paintings on view span the years 1824 to 1856 and are drawn from public and private collections.
