InventoryCollection Number: 17236Building: Central LibraryCurrent Location: Conference RoomFloor: 5th Object DescriptionArtist: Nancy A. NoelArtist Dates: 1945 - PresentArtist Nationality: AmericanObject Type: PrintDetails: Poster print titled "Amish Country" of the work identified as "Sarah" by N.A. Noel. Framed: Yes - PlexiLength: 24 inchesWidth: 1 inchHeight: 30 inchesDescription: The print "Amish Country" is of an original painting by the artist of a young Amish girl holding a white cat. She appears uncertain, if not upset, clutching the cat for comfort. Noël's website speaks to the impact of her Amish series with "Sensitive portraits of animals and Amish children made Noel a household name. The intimacy of the Amish children portrayed is not seen in mainstreamed American culture" (nanoel.com/artist). One is reminded of the raw emotional qualities that characterize children everywhere, in every community. The clumsy signature of the child at the bottom of the print drives this essence home.
