Editor: So, this is Denman Waldo Ross's "Portrait of a Seated Young Man Looking Down." I'm really drawn to the brushstrokes; they're so visible. What do you see in this piece that stands out to you? Curator: Well, for me, it's about intimacy. There's a raw, immediate quality – almost like catching a private moment. The seated man appears to be in contemplation. I can't help but consider the artist's own state of mind, and, what do you think the the man is looking at? Editor: That's interesting. Maybe a book or his hands? Curator: Precisely! It's as if Ross is inviting us into a very quiet, personal space. Editor: I'm not sure I’d ever have interpreted it this way. Curator: See? Art always provides more than one single view!
