EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Outline Drawing Sassafras Linen Press" created in 1904. The intricate graphite sketch, preserved on a linen sheet measuring 10 11/16 x 9 3/16 inches (27.2 x 23.3 cm), is a testament to the artistic brilliance of the Byrdcliffe Arts and Crafts Colony. Established between 1902 and 1915 by Ralph Radcliffe Whitehead, an Englishman born in Yorkshire, this colony was located in Santa Barbara, California. Inspired by the ideas of the Arts and Crafts Movement, Whitehead studied under John Ruskin at Oxford before venturing to establish his own ideal self-sustaining art community in the United States. The Sassafras Linen Press depicted in this outline drawing reflects both Whitehead's visionary approach and his commitment to craftsmanship. Its elegant design embodies the principles of simplicity and functionality championed by the Arts and Crafts Movement. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of furniture through time's lens, it serves as a reminder of how one man's passion for art can transcend borders and cultures. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in history but also pays homage to an era when creativity flourished amidst communal collaboration.
