Oncise Catalogue O oncise catalogue o in THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART A Concise Catalogue of the AMERICAN PAINTINGS in THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART COMPILED BY Albert Ten Eyck Gardner, Associate Curator of American Art NEW YORK 1957 Foreword This concise catalogue has been prepared in answer to a continuing de­ mand for a complete list of the Museum's collection of American paintings. It is the aim of the catalogue to give only the essential information about paintings in oil by American artists. The paintings are listed alphabeti­ cally by artist; measurements are given in inches, height preceding width; signatures and some inscriptions have been transcribed. All paintings acquired through December 1956 have been included. An asterisk on an entry indicates a subject received in exchange for an earlier acquisition. A detailed catalogue of American paintings, now in preparation, will be issued in due course. The compiler wishes to thank Mrs. Herbert Iselin for adding recent acquis­ itions to the catalogue, and Mrs. Josephine L. Allen and Mrs. Gardner for checking entries and correcting proofs. A. T. G.

  • 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.

  • Emmet, Lydia Field American, 1866 - 1952
    National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS American Paintings, 1900–1945 Emmet, Lydia Field American, 1866 - 1952 William Merritt Chase, Lydia Field Emmet, 1892, oil on canvas, Brooklyn Museum, Gift of the Artist, 15.316 BIOGRAPHY Lydia Field Emmet led a remarkably successful artistic career spanning more than 50 years. She is best known as a painter of portraits, particularly of children. Emmet was born in New Rochelle, New York, into a family of female artists. Her mother, Julia Colt Pierson Emmet, her sisters Rosina Emmet Sherwood and Jane Emmet de Glehn, and her cousin Ellen Emmet Rand were all painters. Lydia Emmet’s talent (and enterprise) was apparent early, as she began selling illustrations at the age of 14. In 1884 she accompanied Rosina to Europe, and they studied at the Académie Julian in Paris for six months. During the late 1880s Emmet sold wallpaper designs, made illustrations for Harper’s Weekly, and created stained glass designs for Tiffany Glass Company. From 1889 to 1895 Emmet studied at the Art Students League, where her instructors included William Merritt Chase (American, 1849 - 1916) and Kenyon Cox (American, 1856 - 1919). Chase appointed her an instructor at his Shinnecock Summer School of Art on Long Island, where she taught preparatory classes for several terms. Emmet also posed for one of his most elegant portraits, now in the collection of the Brooklyn Museum. Emmet, Lydia Field 1 © National Gallery of Art, Washington National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS American Paintings, 1900–1945 In 1893 both Emmet and her sister Rosina painted murals for the Women’s Building at the World’s Fair in Chicago.

  • Charles Hopkinson – the Innocent
    Charles s. h opkinson The Innocent Eye Charles Hopkinson’s Studio at “Sharksmouth” Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts Photograph by Charles R. Lowell Charles s. h opkinson (1869-1962) The Innocent Eye June 8-July 20, 2013 V ose Fine American Art for Six Generations Est 1841 G alleries llc introduCtion Vose Galleries is pleased to present our fifth one-man exhibition of works by Boston painter Charles Sydney Hopkinson (1869-1962), most of which have come directly from the Hopkinson family and have never before been offered for sale. We present fifteen watercolors and fifteen oil paintings, including the powerful cover work, Yacht Races , which illustrates Hopkinson’s life long search for new methods and ideas in the making of art. Unlike most of his Boston con - temporaries who studied and taught at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Hopkinson chose a different approach. He studied at the Art Students League in New York City, whose instructors followed a less dogmatic method of teaching. The artist also made several trips to Europe, where he viewed exciting new forms of self-expression. He was one of only a few Boston artists to be invited to show work in the avant-garde International Exhibition of Modern Art in New York City in 1913, which exposed audiences to the radical art movements taking place in Europe, particularly in France. Now cel - ebrating its one-hundredth year anniversary, the exhi - bition, which is now commonly referred to as the Armory Show of 1913, has become a watershed in the history of modernism in the United States.
