The Harn Museum of Art in Gainesville has highlighted Elizabeth Olds’ 'Sunday Fisherman' in a recent collection post on social media. The museum shared the work as part of its #HarnCollection material, pairing a greeting to followers with an image caption identifying the print and its date range.
The artwork is credited to Elizabeth Olds and dated 1935–1940. The caption also places it within the Works Progress Administration-Federal Arts Project, the federally funded program that supported artists during the 1935–1943 span noted in the museum’s post.
Olds’ 'Sunday Fisherman' appears here as a collection highlight rather than as part of a broader exhibition announcement. No accompanying exhibition title, program schedule or public event details were provided in the post, and the museum’s message focuses on presenting the work itself to its audience.
The Harn Museum of Art is the institution behind the post, using its social media feed to draw attention to an object in its collection. The museum’s account identified the image and credited the artist, giving followers a direct view into the holdings it shares online.
Because the post is limited to a collection spotlight, the available information is concise: the artist, title, date range and federal arts program context. The museum did not add interpretive text, curator commentary or a statement about related programming in the post.
The shared image, dated by the museum to 1935–1940, places 'Sunday Fisherman' within the visual record of Depression-era American art and the WPA art projects.
