释义 |
Young, an Illinois artist, was a member of the Chicago Painters and Sculptors and the Oak Park River Forest Art League. He painted several posters for the war effort of World War I, his best-known probably being "Remember Belgium". The Allied Nations made use of images of supposed German atrocities to bolster their propaganda machine. In 2010 Western Illinois University began looking at stored works of art to refurbish, and discovered a rolled-up painting which held “tremendous historical significance.” It was a painting by Young of a river landscape in autumn, and had been commissioned in 1934 to hang in Monroe Hall (later known as Grote Hall) and remaining there for some 60 years until the Hall was demolished in 1991. The painting was sent to the Chicago Conservation Center to be restored.[3] GalleryReferences1. ^http://www.thistlefineart.com/YoungEllsworth.htm 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.artic.edu/aic/collections/artwork/artist/Young,+Ellsworth|title=Young, Ellsworth|publisher=|accessdate=5 October 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.wiu.edu/Alumni/eNewsletter/feb2012/february.html|title=RockeNews--February 2012|publisher=|accessdate=5 October 2014}} External links{{commons category}}
