Original Description
Arthur B. Davies' Forest Nymphs In Moonlight weaves a dreamlike vision where ethereal figures emerge from shadowy woodland, bathed in silvery luminescence. Painted circa 1915-20 during Davies' mature period, this Symbolist-inspired work embodies his fascination with mythological subjects and poetic ambiguity—a hallmark of early 20th-century American modernist transition. The composition marries rhythmic brushwork reminiscent of Puvis de Chavannes with tonalist sensitivity to atmosphere, placing it within the lineage of Davies' influential contributions to the 1913 Armory Show that introduced avant-garde European styles to America. These twilight-draped nymphs, neither fully corporeal nor spectral, exemplify Davies' unique synthesis of Pre-Raphaelite lyricism and nascent modernist abstraction—making it a significant bridge between 19th-century Romanticism and modern imaginative painting.
For interior schemes, this moonlit masterpiece thrives in transitional spaces—consider hanging it in a dimly lit foyer or study where its ghostly palette can glow against deep earth-toned walls like Farrow & Ball's Down Pipe. The vertical format (likely 30x40 inches) suits narrow walls flanking bookshelves or above consoles. Echo its blue-gray undertones with mercury-glass lamps and nubby linen textiles, while the figures' dynamic poses harmonize with curvilinear Art Nouveau furnishings. In offices, pair with raw-edge walnut desks to balance mysticism with organic warmth; the painting's introspective quality benefits meditation rooms when illuminated with focused picture lights that mimic its lunar radiance. Smaller giclée reproductions work beautifully as part of a tonalist grouping alongside Whistler lithographs.
