Art & Design 2day explores the fusion of timeless masterpieces and modern design. In this issue, we highlight Marsden Hartley’s Red Tree (1910), a striking early example of modernist abstraction. With its vivid red tones and simplified organic forms, Hartley pushes beyond traditional landscape representation, capturing the essence of nature through bold color and shape. His unique vision, which balances abstraction and emotional resonance, marked a pivotal moment in American modernism, where art transcended literal depictions to explore form and feeling.
Marsden Hartley (1877–1943), a central figure in early American modernism, painted Red Tree during a transformative period in his artistic career. Rendered in oil on fiberboard, the work exhibits Hartley’s experimentation with Fauvist-inspired color and simplified structure. The tree—intense in its crimson hue—stands as a powerful yet abstract form, juxtaposed against dark, earthy tones. This approach reflects Hartley’s departure from realism, favoring emotional intensity over literal depiction. Red Tree (1910) is part of the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s collection, gifted by Flora E. H. Shawan from the Ferdinand Howald Collection. The painting exemplifies Hartley’s pioneering role in American abstraction, showcasing his ability to distill nature into a vibrant, symbolic composition that resonates with both energy and stillness.
Inspired by Marsden Hartley’s Red Tree, this art-derived collection brings a rich, organic abstraction into modern interiors. The products—ranging from shoulder bags, laptop sleeves, and art aprons to elegant placemats and waterproof travel bags—infuse functional design with artistic depth. The vibrant red palette and stylized forms make these items ideal for luxury environments, including cruise ships, superyachts, boutique hotels, upscale real estate, or private jets. Each piece celebrates Hartley’s unique vision, transforming everyday items into sophisticated statements of modernist design.
