John Marin美国, 1870–1953Marin drew incessantly throughout his career, filling many sketchbooks and continuously exploring the interconnection between drawing and watercolor. The gift of this small but very complete graphite drawing sheds new light on the iconic 1922 watercolor The Red Sun, Brooklyn Bridge. Probably a preparatory study, but possibly a closely related reprise, the drawing offers details of the scene that are abstracted and obscured in the finished watercolor itself.
