A meteorite that penetrated a Georgia home has been classified by UGA researchers as a 4.56-billion-year-old ordinary chondrite, predating Earth. Named the McDonough Meteorite, it offers insight into solar-system history. 🧪☄️🔭 #meteorite #planetaryscience #UGA #space news.uga.edu/uga-names-ne...

Woman in Striped Dress by Joseph Delaney (American) - Oil on board / 1964 - Georgia Museum of Art (Athens, Georgia) #womeninart #art #portrait #oilpainting #JosephDelaney #UGA #africanamericanart #fineart #womensart #GeorgiaMuseumofArt #Delaney #portraitofawoman #lady #artwork #AfricanAmericanArtist

In this wonderful portrait, a well-toned African American woman appears as a sophisticated and thoughtful lady, confident in her own skin, with an appreciation for style and art. Seated in a wooden chair near the center of the canvas, Her posture suggests a sense of poise and self-assurance while her gaze conveys thoughtfulness or contemplation of something beyond us. She has crossed her legs in a relaxed and confident manner with her hands clasped together, holding a small open book.

She wears a blue dress with a white and blue pattern that creates a marbled effect accented by a necklace with a pendant. The knee-length dress is sleeveless and appears to be made of a light fabric with its fitted waist accentuated by a dark belt. Her dark-colored and closed-toe shoes, possibly pumps draw our attention to her bare legs.

African American artist Joseph Delaney grew up in a large family with nine siblings, including his older brother, fellow artist Beauford Delaney. They were both born in Tennessee, and their father was a Methodist minister. In 1930, after some itinerant years, Joseph followed his brother to New York, where he studied at the Art Students League.

In NYC, he became a part of the Harlem Renaissance and studied with artists Alexander Brook and Thomas Hart Benton. He worked for the federal government’s Works Progress Administration during the Depression, teaching classes and making art. In 1942 and 1943, he traveled and created a series of works that documented the lives of Black laborers, thanks to a Julius Rosenwald Foundation grant.

Delaney was best known for his vibrant scenes of urban life and for his portraits of people including Eartha Kitt, Eubie Blake and Eleanor Roosevelt. He was well aware of how difficult it was for Black artists like himself, writing, “in the fine arts field, the mountain is not coming to Mohammed. . . . Many a black Daniel Boone is clearing rugged terrain and thick swamps and jagged cliff-sides with palette and brush.”

Self-portrait by Louise Heron Blair (American) - Oil on board / 1929 - Georgia Museum of Art (Athens, Georgia) #WomenInArt #ArtText #WomanArtist #FemaleArtist #SelfPortrait #WomensArt #WomenArtists #LouiseHeronBlair #Blair #UGA #GeorgiaMuseumofArt #AmericanArtist #AmericanArt #art #artwork #1920s

American painter Louise Heron Blair (aka Louise Blair Daura) had a relatively brief (1928–1932), but accomplished career as an exhibiting artist. Born in Richmond, Virginia in 1905, she graduated with an English degree in 1927 from Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania. The following year, she set out for Europe to study art by visiting museums and taking private lessons, eventually making her way to Paris.

It was in France that she met and married her art teacher, Catalan artist Pierre Daura, who co-founded a group of abstractionists called Cercle et Carré (Circle and Square) along with Joaquín Torres Garcia and Michel Seuphor in 1929. Though her artwork was not abstract and she never joined the group herself, Blair forged ahead with her own unique style of portraiture, which often accentuated certain facial features—slightly bigger eyes, rosier cheeks, or poutier lips.

In this 1929 oil painting, Blair portrays herself with elongated neck and dark bobbed hair, wearing a vibrant red beret. Her dark eyes and gaze are direct, yet somewhat inquisitive. She is wearing a loose-fitting robe with a bold red and dark brown plaid pattern. The robe's texture seems soft and possibly woolen. The color palette is warm, dominated by reds and browns, which are contrasted by cool blues and greens in the background. Behind the woman, the background is somewhat abstract but depicts a leafy, wooded scene painted in muted greens, browns, and blues. There is also a partially visible figure to the left wearing a yellowish garment and holding a basket.

The style has hints of Impressionism; brushstrokes are visible, and forms are not sharply defined. Overall, the atmosphere is youthful confidence, with a hint of mystery added by the partially obscured figure in the background.
