Description
Andrew Wyeth’s Christina’s World is one of the most iconic paintings in the history of American art. It was Christina’s World that turned Andrew Wyeth into a household name and claimed him one of the best American realist painters.
But who was Christina? And what kind of world did she live in?
Listen to ArtMuse’s episode on Anna Christina Olson and the world she lived out her noble life in; the small coastal town of Cushing, Maine. As a young child, Christina showed signs of an undiagnosed degenerative disease that slowly took away her mobility. While this presented unimaginable challenges, Christina never let her disability stop her from living a robust life nor compromise her unparalleled dignity and strength.
Christina’s story deserves to be honored in its entirety, beyond Wyeth and the painting that turned her into an icon. Christina was a remarkable woman in her own right, who showed extraordinary resilience in the face of continued challenges.
