Untitled (Portrait of a Young Man), 1938 — watercolor and pastel on green wove paper by Beauford Delaney.

This sensitive portrait is an early work by Beauford Delaney (1901–1979), created during his time living and working in Greenwich Village. He settled in the Village, drawn by his ideals of integration and a bohemian lifestyle that suited him. Delaney painted portraits of friends, supporters, and public figures who held personal significance. His social consciousness inspired him to depict individuals from diverse racial and sexual backgrounds—portraying both black and white subjects, as well as the heteronormative and gay residents of the Village. Delaney led a romantically solitary life, choosing not to express his underlying sexuality due to his strict religious upbringing and the sociopolitical climate of the time.

John Roddam Spencer Stanhope (English, 1829–1908). ‘The Waters of Lethe by the Plains of Elysium’ (detail), 1879-80. oil on canvas

[baddisneypuppy]

The tempera and gold paint masterpiece depicts world-weary pilgrims traveling across a barren landscape toward the River Lethe to drink its water and forget their past lives before entering the blissful afterlife.

In classical mythology, Lethe is one of the five rivers of the Underworld, alongside the Styx, Acheron, Phlegethon, and Cocytus. The souls of the deceased would drink from Lethe to wipe away their memories so they could be reincarnated or live peacefully in Elysium
