EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Farnhams Mill at St. Anthony Falls, Minneapolis" in 1888, as captured by the talented artist Alexis Jean Fournier. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures 43.82 x 66.04 cm and is currently housed at the prestigious Minneapolis Institute of Arts in Minnesota, USA. The artwork depicts Farnhams Mill, one of the earliest mills established in Minneapolis during that time period. Situated on the west side of Hennepin Island at the east end of St. Anthony Falls, it served as a symbol of industry and progress in America's heartland. Fournier himself was an influential figure among local artists in Minnesota and had a deep connection to his birthplace of St. Paul. He honed his skills both within his home country and abroad at France's Julien Academy. In this painting, Fournier expertly captures the natural beauty surrounding Farnhams Mill - from the rushing waters cascading down St. Anthony Falls to the rugged rocks lining its banks. The composition seamlessly blends elements of Barbizon School aesthetics with American industrialism. As viewers gaze upon this remarkable piece, they are transported back to a time when mills like Farnhams stood tall as symbols of progress and prosperity for communities across America's landscape.
