Painting Description
"Flight and Pursuit" is an oil painting on canvas produced in 1872 by American artist William Rimmer (1816–1879). Rimmer, known for his works showcasing powerful human forms, uses this piece to portray an intense drama that primarily deals with human struggle. The painting, measuring 27.25 x 25.25 inches, manifests stark visual contrasts to symbolize pursuit and escape, immediately grabbing the viewer's attention.
The painting presents a disturbing scene where two muscular figures can be observed in a precarious situation, echoing the title, "Flight and Pursuit". The figure in the foreground appears to be in desperate flight while the other, with a demonic demeanor, is in aggressive pursuit. Despite the terror implied in the depiction, the artwork doesn’t provide an explicit narrative context, leaving the viewer to interpret the symbolism woven into the muscular figures and their periphery.
The figures' ethereal surroundings further contribute to the overall mood of prevailing dread in the scene. The lack of landscape or recognizable details situates the figures in an ambiguous void, heightening the sense of mystery and fear associated with the painting.
"Flight and Pursuit" is one of Rimmer's most notable works and is illustrative of his distinctive art style, which often hinged on a dramatic exploration of the human body. The painting is currently held by the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.
