    About the artwork

    Luc Olivier Merson (1846-1920) was a French academic painter known for his historical and allegorical subjects. He won the Prix de Rome in 1869 and went on to create murals, illustrations, and easel paintings that combined classical technique with a romantic sensibility. His "Allegory of Time" uses soft tones and fluid composition to personify an abstract concept -- something Merson did better than most painters of his generation. His work deserves wider recognition outside of French art circles.

    Details

    Time as a winged figure moving through an ethereal landscape -- Luc Olivier Merson painted allegories that feel like waking dreams. This limited artsy tote bag features his "Allegory of Time" on cotton canvas, giving a lesser-known masterwork the everyday visibility it deserves.
