L. Gerry 1858 , Dated 1858 RECENT ACQUISITIONS September 19- November 12, 2008 VOSE GALLERIES OF BOSTON Raised in a farming family in Pennsylvania, Martin Johnson Heade’s modest roots did not presume that he would ultimately enjoy the longest career of any nineteenth-century American painter, and travel far beyond the boundaries of his home state. Heade began painting around the age of eighteen and settled in New York in 1843, a move that prompted a fifteen-year period during which he lived and journeyed throughout the United States and Europe, spending time in cities such as Rome, St. Louis, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Tren - ton, Providence and New Orleans. After his travels, Heade took a studio at the popular Tenth Street Studio Building in New York City, where he met the leading landscape artists of the day, including Frederic E. Church, who most likely influenced Heade’s lifelong interest in land- and seascape paint - ing. The artist’s long relationship with Vose Galleries began in the late 1850s while he was painting in Rhode Island. There he met Seth Vose, and the two became friends and col - leagues; Vose represented Heade’s pictures from as early as 1860. After leaving New York in 1862, the artist rented space in Boston’s newly-opened Studio Building. During Heade’s two years in Boston he attracted positive reviews and ex - plored the city’s north and south shores, painting the local marshlands and shorelines. From the Studio Building, Heade wrote to Vose, “I have just sent by early express two pictures that I happened to have finished. The one you may get 35 for & the other 20 or 25. In a few days—about a week—I’ll send a large one, & a good one, & you must not let it go for less than 150. Get more if you can.” Sailboats off the Connecticut Shore (Black Rock) incorporates aspects from two types of paintings for which Heade was known: seascapes and marsh scenes. The calm water dotted with small sailboats and the incandescent clouds create a delicate contrast to the figures toil - ing in the marshy foreground.

Stebbins, Jr., The Life and Work of Martin Johnson Heade, A Critical Analysis and Catalogue Raisonné (New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 2000) Illus. p.250, #191. 2 Martin Johnson Heade (1819-1904) Sailboats off the Connecticut Shore (Black Rock) Oil on wood panel, 9 x 12 1/4 inches, Circa 1870 3 Alfred T. Bricher was born in the coastal town of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and raised in Newburyport, Massachusetts. At the age of fourteen he went to Boston to work as a clerk in a dry-goods store and took art classes at the Lowell Institute in his spare time. In 1858 he met Charles Temple Dix and William Stanley Haseltine on a sketching trip to Mount Desert, Maine, and soon after established a studio in Boston. At that time, the newly built Studio Building was also home to fellow landscape painters Martin Johnson Heade, William Bradford, George Inness and Samuel L. Gerry. During his early career, Bricher made sketching trips through the Catskills and the White Mountains, but was painting primarily seascapes of the New England coastline by the mid-1870s. In 1874 Bricher made his first visit to Grand Manan Island off the coast of New Brunswick, and began a series that fascinated him for the next fifteen years. Bricher trav - eled out to the island by boat from Eastport, Maine, a trip which he referenced in an 1895 let - ter to his daughter, Dottie: “Here I am you see. Left Eastport at 1 Saturday got to Grand 1 Manan at 3—took the mail wagon and got here about 7 in the evening—very tired….” Low Tide and Cliffs, Grand Manan , demonstrates all of the signature elements—flat calm sea, cerulean blue sky and dramatic cliffs—that made Bricher one of the most well-known and widely collected marine painters of his day. Nineteenth-century Vose Galleries proprietor Seth Vose greatly admired Bricher’s work, and handled his paintings from as early as 1862. Seth would buy as many as ten to twenty paintings at a time. Bricher was also promoted by Springfield, Massachusetts, dealer James D. Gill, who sold many of his paintings to avid art collector G. W. V. Smith. Several of Bricher’s seascapes remain in the collection of Springfield’s George Walter Vincent Smith Art Museum. 1 Indianapolis Museum Exhibition Catalogue, Jeffrey R. Brown, 1973. 4 Alfred Thompson Bricher (1837-1908) Low Tide and Cliffs, Grand Manan Oil on canvas, 14 x 20 inches, Signed lower right: AT Bricher 5 The modest desire to capture unidealized views of nature launched a revolution in French art in the 19th century. By 1850, Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Charles-François Daubigny, Narcisse-Virgil Diaz and Jean-François Millet were all painting in the village of Barbizon. In defiance of academic standards that stressed historical scenes, themes from mythology and portrait painting, these artists took their canvases outdoors and painted di - rectly from nature. Providence art dealer Seth M. Vose (1831-1910) began acquiring works by these un - conventional artists in the 1850s, convinced that they were among the greatest painters of their day. His collection of art by Barbizon School painters numbered in the hundreds, but it took more than twenty years before he would sell even one work. Despite ridicule, he re - mained devoted to their cause and eventually turned public opinion; in 1887 Vose sold five Corot paintings for $10,000 a piece. Diaz exhibited his paintings at the Paris Salon for the first time in 1831. His earli - est works were mostly figurative pieces, with a particular specialty in nymphs, Turkish and Arabian women. His viewers were so impressed by the glowing qualities of these works and their realistic portrayal of warm sun on vibrantly colored clothing that many assumed he spent his summers in the East, not knowing that Diaz had never seen these ladies in per - son. Later in his career, nearing the age of forty, Diaz made the first of many trips to the forest of Fontainebleau and began the series of works for which he is now best known. He befriended Theodore Rousseau, another major figure of the Barbizon School, who instructed him on the application of bolder colors such as emerald green and Naples yellow. His obit - uary in The Art Journal read: “He delighted to paint forest-scenes, and was particularly happy in lighting up the dark places with rays of sunlight, and touching with spots of gold the 1 hoary tree-trunks.” 1 The Art Journal , Diaz obituary, 1877, p.31. 6 Narcisse-Virgil Diaz (1807-1876) Page and Hounds in the Forest of Fontainebleau Oil on wood panel, 16 x 12 1/2 inches, Signed lower right: N. Diaz 7 Hippolyte-Camille Delpy was born in Joigny, in the heart of France, in 1842. The son of a pharmacist, Delpy’s early talents in painting were recognized and encouraged when Charles-François Daubigny, a close friend of the family and famed Barbizon School painter, took the young Camille under his wing. At age sixteen, Delpy sought to develop his paint - ing skills in Paris, but he soon became Daubigny’s student exclusively, and long remained under his artistic influence. Later in Paris, following a year of military service from 1862 to 1863, Daubigny introduced Delpy to Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. As one of the best-known early Barbizon School painters, Corot would prove to be another strong influence on Delpy’s painting style. A critic from La République Française described how “Mr. Delpy has revealed himself as a young landscape painter combining Corot’s poetical style with Daubigny’s more 1 naturalistic style in a way that [does] not exclude his own personality.” Delpy made his debut at the Paris Salon of 1869 and enjoyed a career that spanned over forty years. He won many awards and medals, was elected to full membership of the Société des Artistes Français in 1886, and exhibited at the prestigious Exposition Universelle of 1900. A later meeting with Cézanne and Pissarro had a great impact on Delpy. Although he remained faithful to the technique of Daubigny and Corot, he brought a more vigorous touch and a greater intensity of color to his work. Delpy is considered one of the most em - inent of the second-generation Barbizon painters. 1 La République Française , Feb. 14, 1876.

It took William Preston Phelps over a decade as a professional artist to discover a landscape that moved him so powerfully that it inspired his greatest body of work.

  • Berthe Morisot
    Calgary Sketch Club April and May 2021 Message from the President “It is important to express oneself ... provided the feelings are real and are taken from your own experience.” ~ Berthe Morisot And now warmer weather invites us outside, into the fields and gardens to experience nature, gain an impression, paint a record of our sensations. Welcome to a summer of painting. Whether you take your photos and paint in the studio or make the time to sit amidst the dynamic landscape, get out and experience the real colours, shapes, and shifting light. Your paintings will be the better for having authentic emotional content. This spring we were able to enjoy a club meeting dedicated to Plein Aire painting, a technical painting method that supported the development of the Impressionism move- ment. While some people may be familiar with the men who worked in impressionism, Monet, Manet, Gaugin, and so on, few dwell on the contribution of women painters to the development and furthering of painting your sensations, impressions, and expe- riences. After viewing work by Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, Eva Gonzales, Marie Bracquemond and Lilly Cabot Perry, we see a sizable contribution to the oevre from the depths of meaning and exciting brushwork of these pioneering artists. The social cultural milleau of 1874 Paris, it was difficult for women to find equal footing or even acceptance as artists. And no matter that the art could stand beside that of any con- temporary man or woman, it was sometimes not enough. However, time has allowed a fuller examination of their work and its place in the impressionist canon.

  • BIOGRAPHIES John Antrobus
    BIOGRAPHIES John Antrobus (1837–1907): Sculptor and painter of portraits, landscapes, and genre scenes (showing everyday life). Antrobus was born in England but came to Philadelphia in 1850. During his travels through the American West and Mexico, he worked as a portraitist before opening a studio in New Orleans. He served briefly with the Confederate Army during the Civil War before moving to Chicago. Antrobus sculpted both Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas and was the first artist to paint a portrait of Ulysses S. Grant (in 1863). Edward Atkinson (1827–1905): American political leader and economist who began his political career as a Republican supporter of the Free Soil movement. Atkinson fought slavery before the Civil War by helping escaped slaves and raising money for John Brown. After the Civil War, in 1886, Atkinson campaigned for future President Grover Cleveland and worked against imperialism (the movement to expand a nation’s territorial rule by annexing territory outside of the main country) after the Spanish-American War. Baker & Co (active, 19th century): Lithography firm associated with Louis Kurz. Thomas Ball (1819–1911): American sculptor who gained recognition for his small busts before creating more monumental sculptures. Notable works include one of the first statues portraying Abraham Lincoln as the Great Emancipator (1876), paid for by donations from freed slaves and African American Union veterans, which stands in Washington D.C.’s Lincoln Park. Ball also created a heroic equestrian statue of George Washington for the Boston Public Garden (1860–1864). He joined an expatriate community in Italy, where he received many commissions for portrait busts, cemetery memorials, and heroic bronze statues.

  • Robert Henri American / Estadounidense, 1865–1929 Beatrice Whittaker Oil on Canvas, 1919
    Daniel Garber American / Estadounidense, 1880–1958 Junior Camp Oil on board, ca. 1924 Daniel Garber served on the faculty of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts for over forty years. He started as a student in 1899, studying with William Merritt Chase. After being awarded a scholarship that allowed him to study in Europe for two years, he returned to Philadelphia in 1907, where he was first hired by Emily Sartain to teach at the Philadelphia School of Design for Women. This painting demonstrates a shift in Garber’s style, as he is known for his Impressionist landscapes. In the 1920s, Garber began experimenting with a heavier stitch-like brushstroke, as seen here, in one of his many depictions of the Delaware River embankment near his home and studio. Campamento juvenil Óleo sobre tabla, ca. 1924 Daniel Garber formó parte del cuerpo docente de la Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts durante más de cuarenta años. Comenzó como estudiante en 1899 y fue alumno de William Merritt Chase. Tras estudiar en Europa durante dos años gracias a una beca, regresó en 1907 a Filadelfia, donde fue contratado por primera vez por Emily Sartain para impartir clases en la Philadelphia School of Design for Women. Esta pintura pone de manifiesto un cambio estilístico en Garber, conocido por sus paisajes impresionistas. En la década de 1920, Garber comenzó a experimentar con pinceladas más empastadas, semejantes a puntadas, como se aprecia aquí en una de sus muchas representaciones del dique del río Delaware, cercano a su hogar y estudio.
