"Artists Past and Present: Random Studies" by Elisabeth Luther Cary is a collection of art essays written in the early 20th century. The book presents a series of studies on notable artists, including Antoine Louis Barye and Mary Cassatt, exploring their lives and artistic contributions while providing insightful analyses of their works. Through these essays, the author delves into the unique techniques, themes, and emotional depth that characterize each artist's body of work, making it a valuable read for art enthusiasts and historians alike. The opening of the collection begins with a detailed examination of Antoine Louis Barye, a pioneering figure in animal sculpture. Cary discusses Barye's early life and training, his artistic innovations, and his distinctive style that blends scientific accuracy with a sense of life and motion in his sculptures. The narrative highlights Barye's struggles with recognition during his lifetime, emphasizing his dedication to perfection and the profound impact of his works on the art world, particularly in his ability to capture the raw energy and essence of animal subjects. This opening portion effectively sets the stage for the subsequent profiles of other influential artists in the book, offering readers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of art history that Cary aims to illuminate.
