EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned painting "Five Miles to Taos" by Oscar Edward Berninghaus. Created in 1949, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures the essence of rural New Mexico in the mid-20th century. The elevated view allows us to witness a man and two animals embarking on a journey along a road that stretches into the distant horizon. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he skillfully portrays the vastness of the natural space surrounding them. The cloudy sky adds an element of drama and mystery to the scene, hinting at possible weather changes ahead. As we observe this tranquil countryside setting, we can't help but feel transported back in time. The peacefulness of nature combined with human presence creates a sense of harmony and unity within this artwork. Berninghaus' ability to capture both physical activity and stillness is remarkable. The figures appear engaged in their walk while also blending seamlessly into their surroundings. This juxtaposition highlights the connection between humans and nature, emphasizing our place within it. Through this photograph, we are invited to delve into Berninghaus' artistic vision and immerse ourselves in his interpretation of life during that era. It serves as a reminder of how art has the power to transport us across time and space, allowing us glimpses into different periods throughout history.
