Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Charles Sims (1873-1926), The Faun—an Epilogue, signed "Sims," undated, private collection, oil on panel, 24 x 15 5/8 inches. Exhibited: London, The Royal Academy of Arts Winter Exhibition/Commemorative Exhibition of Works by Late Members, 1933, number 420, lent by its owner, B.P.R. Parsons, Esq. Possibly a "sequel" to Sims' The Little Faun (two versions, 1905-6 and 1908). Edward McCurdy, "Painters of Yesterday" in The Quarterly Review, Vol. 260, No. 516, April, 1933, pp. 258-259: "Sims possessed the imagination spirit to a rare degree.…among much that dates from the period when his powers were at their freshest and most natural…[is] a small picture which bears the title 'The Faun: an Epilogue,' in which the player has hung up his pipes…birds are sitting, spread about somewhat after the fashion of the listeners to St Francis in the fresco at Assisi, waiting apparently for the music to begin again. I like fantasies such as these treated in the way that Sims treats them."
