Painting Description
"Billy Sunday" is a notable 1921 lithograph by the American artist George Wesley Bellows, capturing the dynamic figure of the famous American evangelist Billy Sunday in the midst of one of his animated sermons. Bellows, renowned for his powerful depictions of urban life and sporting events, brings his vigorous style to the portrayal of Sunday, emphasizing the evangelist's theatrical gestures and the intensity of his religious fervor.
The lithograph showcases Bellows' mastery of the medium, with stark contrasts and energetic lines that convey the movement and passion of Sunday's preaching style. Billy Sunday was a former professional baseball player turned influential revivalist preacher, known for his flamboyant rhetoric and staunch advocacy of Prohibition. Bellows' work reflects the cultural and social milieu of early 20th-century America, a period marked by religious revivalism and social reform.
As part of Bellows' broader oeuvre, "Billy Sunday" exemplifies the artist's interest in capturing the essence of American society and its characters. The lithograph is held in several prestigious collections and has been the subject of scholarly analysis in the context of American art history, offering insights into the intersection of religion, culture, and the arts during a transformative era in the United States.
