Cloaked in mystery, the female form of “Nightfall” intrigues us. Concealed is a beautiful face, but like nightfall itself, all is not revealed. The globes in each hand lend activity and movement to the figure, while also suggesting the eternally repeated cycles of nature, and the endlessness of nature’s rhythms. Our eye follows the flow of the drapery from top to base — a device that generates movement in the piece, countering the direction of the stride and creating dramatic visual tension. Poised on a crescent moon, the figure strides with strength and purpose, conveying the unstoppable nature of time. MacDonald creatively combines the use of texture, patina, and the classical Baroque spiral to create a truly unique work. Should you have any questions regarding this new edition, please contact the gallery at (888) 972-5543.
