Parmentier Grounds, c. 1936: A Timeless Tribute to Nature and Faith". This aerial view of Parmentier Grounds, created by the talented artist Virginia Richards in the 1930s, offers a glimpse into a bygone era where art and spirituality intertwined harmoniously. The intricate details captured in watercolor graphite colored pencil and gouache on paperboard bring this enchanting scene to life. Nestled within the heart of America, these grounds served as an art center and gallery that celebrated both American heritage and Christian culture. The carefully designed buildings blend seamlessly with the natural landscape, creating a serene environment for visitors to immerse themselves in beauty. At the center of this picturesque setting stands a magnificent statue of the Virgin Mary - an iconic symbol of devotion and faith. Surrounded by lush gardens and towering trees, it exudes tranquility while inviting contemplation. The map-like quality of Richards' work showcases her mastery in cartography, capturing every geographical feature with precision. This artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also provides insight into how people perceived their surroundings during that time period. As we gaze upon this stunning print today, we are transported back to an era when nature was revered, art was cherished, and spirituality held great significance. It is a testament to Virginia Richards' talent as she skillfully immortalized Parmentier Grounds through her unique artistic lens.
