NOTES
A man sits deep in thought, with garment in hand and sewing supplies on a table nearby. The title, Beyond Redemption, may allude to the mending task or to the man himself. Artist Paul Harney taught at the St. Louis School and Museum of Fine Arts and Shurtleff College in Alton, Illinois. This painting was included in the St. Louis Exposition and Music Hall Association’s 18th Annual Art Exhibition in 1901.
