  • “I Borrowed the Full of Our Shugar Dish of Shugar from Her.”
    “I borrowed the full of our Shugar dish of shugar from her.” -Matthew Patten, March 13, 1781 THE PATTEN FAMILY SUGAR BOWL On November 22, 1902, William Greenleaf Blunt stood on the doorstep of the de Young Museum located in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, California. He stood there with a small wooden container, a maple burl covered sugar bowl. It looked old and not necessarily precious, a humble object by the considerations of most. Blunt’s father had died five years earlier, his mother some years before that. William was also getting on in years and he and his wife, Rachel, had no children. He was a taxidermist by profession and understood the importance of preservation, of maintaining the past, both natural and artificial, for the study and appreciation by contemporary and future generations. The door to the museum opened and Blunt was greeted by a curator. As William told the story of the bowl, the curator listened and began to enter its details into the museum’s catalogue books. The ledgers were laid out with specific field headers and ruled boxes: Museum Number, Character of Object, Received From, When Received, Remarks, etcetera. The story seemed to have more details than the ledger would allow, so just the essential details were recorded. As the door closed and William left the museum, so did the story of the sugar bowl. Its history would be lost for 100 years. I first became aware of this maple burl sugar bowl in early August, 2001. Before leaving for Maine, which is home base for me during Antiques Week in New Hampshire, I made a routine check for burl on Ebay.

  • Bio Saccaro, John
    237 East Palace Avenue Santa Fe, NM 87501 800 879-8898 505 989-9888 505 989-9889 Fax [email protected] John Saccaro (American Painter, 1913-1981) John Saccaro was born in San Francisco, and served as a camoufleur in France in the Army during WWII. He began his artistic career working for the Federal Arts Project in the Murals Section at Treasure Island in the 1930s. In 1939, at the age of 25, he was given a solo show at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and in 1954, he graduated from the California School of Fine Arts (now the San Francisco Art Institute). Saccaro later went on to teach at UCLA from 1963 to 1964. Around 1955, Saccaro began to paint in the manner for which he is best known, using a slashing, angular brushwork that bears resemblance to the gestural canvases of Kline. He called these paintings "sensory raids," defining sensorism as "the scrape, slash, and violence of the sensory." Saccaro's bright palette contrasted to the earth tones and monochromes more common among San Francisco artists at the time. He was a major contributor to the San Francisco School of Abstract Expressionism, and his works appear in the book of the same name by Susan Landauer (published by UC Press in 1996). Saccaro's work has been featured in several West Coast eXhibitions, including shows at the San Francisco Museum of Art, de Young Museum, and Oakland Museum.
