Painting Description
"James and Sarah Tuttle" is a folk art double portrait by American itinerant painter Joseph H. Davis. Painted in 1835, this work is one of the many watercolor portraits for which Davis is known, created during a period when he was active between 1832 and 1837. The painting features a husband and wife, James Tuttle and Sarah Tuttle, depicted in a domestic setting that includes a detailed interior background, which is characteristic of Davis's style.
Joseph H. Davis's portraits are celebrated for their distinctive linear quality and attention to detail, often including elements that provide insight into the lives and social status of his subjects. "James and Sarah Tuttle" exemplifies Davis's use of vibrant colors and the inclusion of personal and household items that offer a glimpse into the material culture of the time. The painting is also noted for its inclusion of text, another hallmark of Davis's work, which typically identifies the subjects and includes the date of the painting's completion.
As an itinerant artist, Davis traveled throughout New England, particularly in New Hampshire and Maine, capturing the likenesses of middle-class Americans during the early 19th century. His work provides valuable historical insights into the period's aesthetics and the emerging American middle class's self-perception. "James and Sarah Tuttle" is considered an important piece within Davis's oeuvre and contributes to the broader understanding of American folk art and portraiture of the era. The painting is held in various folk art collections and has been exhibited in museums that specialize in American art from the 19th century.
