Michener Art Museum’s Traveling Trunk Lesson 1: First Impressions Social Studies, Studio Art, Language Arts, Art History Connections Objectives: Students will be introduced to the themes and materials in the James A. Michener Art Museum Culture Kit, A Lasting Impression. Students will demonstrate an understanding of the vocabulary presented in the Lasting Impressions Culture Kit Students will become familiar with the distinctive style in Pennsylvania Impressionist paintings, through the works of Lathrop, Redfield, and Sotter Students will use original documentation to learn about the history of Pennsylvania Impressionism Students will understand the importance of Bucks County heritage as it relates to Pennsylvania, American, and French Impressionism Lesson Ideas Explore the Culture Kit Display the contents of the Culture Kit in your classroom or school library. Provide students with the opportunity to explore the contents of the kit and ask questions. Use student questions as motivation for the research and activities you complete in conjunction with the materials and resources in the kit. Explore Concepts Students will need to take a step into the not so distant past when they are reviewing the contents of the kit. Students could develop these understandings individually, or in groups. As historians, they will need to consider: The role of documentation while researching the time period, including photographs, letters, and newspaper articles The role Pennsylvania Impressionism plays in the time frame of art history – American Impressionism, French Impressionism, and beyond The influence of style on art – art, clothing, society, etc. The influence of technology on art – transportation, art materials, photography, etc. Explore Impressionism How did French Impressionism come to the United States? Research how the art world on two continents was connected at that time. Include the role of transportation, photography, business, society, and media in your discussion. William Merrit Chase, Childe Hassam, and John Henry Twachtman all focused on the Impressionist hallmarks of familiar subjects and rapid technique, and left a distinct mark on American painting. How were these artists influenced by Impressionist work being created in France at that time? Compare and contrast the works of Pennsylvania Impressionists with Impressionist work being created by these artists. Compare and contrast the works of Pennsylvania Impressionists Daniel Garber, William L. Lathrop, Edward Redfield, and George Sotter. Describe how each artist James A. Michener Art Museum • 138 South Pine Street • Doylestown, PA 18901 MichenerArtMuseum.org • 215-340-9800 4 portrays light, color, time of day, brushstrokes, weather, and mood. Reference primary resources including photographs, letters, and newspaper articles in your discussion of the works of these artists and how they approached their landscape paintings. Explore En Plein Air What does this French phrase mean? Create an “en plein air painting. Describe the insights you develop while considering the outdoors, the elements, and your materials while completing this original artwork. How did the invention of the paint tube impact their working methods? Explore Leadership Have you ever been in a leadership position? Have you ever had the opportunity to start something new, in your home, school, or community? Painter William Lathrop was a leader. He was instrumental in establishing the community of Pennsylvania Impressionist artists soon after he moved into his home and studio at Phillips’ Mill in 1899. He and his wife Annie hosted tea parties for the New Hope Colony of artists every Sunday to engage them in dialogue about the arts. He was a dedicated teacher, and he mentored several members of the New Hope School’s first and second generation of painters. Research the pivotal role the Lathrop’s played in the establishment of the New Hope art colony and the spread of the Impressionist style in Bucks County. Use primary sources to support your findings. Additional Curriculum Connections: Geography: How do the landscapes painted by the PA Impressionists depict the natural geography of the region? How are these landscapes different today (Significant waterways, canals, etc.)? Travel/Transportation: Steamship travel was an important part of the lives of these artists, as some had the opportunity to study in Europe. Artists would use authentic steamer trunks, such as this, when they traveled for many days. How was steamship travel different from the modes of transportation today? What kinds of things did people have to endure during these travels? James A.

Michener Art Museum’s Traveling Trunk Lesson 2: Improvisational Theater Social Studies, Art History, Language Arts, Theatre Connections Objectives Students will demonstrate an understanding and appreciation of the Pennsylvania Impressionists by participating in a research-based improvisational theater activity. Lesson Ideas The Research Research the key figures in Pennsylvania Impressionism (MichenerArtMuseum.org). Students will create an index card with the name of the artists on the front, and a brief, three or four sentence description of his or her personality, likes and dislikes, and creative tendencies on the back. Place these cards in a bowl for students to choose from for the improv activity. The “Character Worksheet” below could also be used as a basis for student research about the artists they will portray. In this case, students would portray the artist they researched. For example, Lathrop may be described as supportive, caring, kind, a lover of nature and art, sensitive to the environment around him, dedicated, and organized. What voice, gestures, and movement would he demonstrate? How does this compare with what you learn and imagine about Edward Redfield? The Drama Encourage students to think about the kinds of conversations the Impressionists had when they held their weekly parties at the Lathrop’s. Encourage students to think about the environment they lived in. Encourage students to think about the personalities of all the artists that were in the New Hope Art Colony, and what they endured - to have the confidence to show their work, promote it, and go against the traditional way of doing artwork. Consider their movements and gestures, voice, posture and mannerisms. The Activity In the front of the classroom, place two chairs. Two students select artist cards out of the bowl or basket, and sit on the chairs. They strike up a conversation, pretending to be the artist named on the card they selected. The teacher may need to ask a leading question each time to get the conversation started. Allow students to converse for one to two minutes. At the end of the time, the student on the right facing the class leaves, the student on the left moves into the chair on the right, and a third student chooses a card, sits in the empty chair, and continues the conversation, making sure to play the artist written about on his or her card. The activity continues until every student has had a chance to participate. Use props found in the James A. Michener Art Museum’s Culture Kit, A Lasting Impression, while engaging in the improv activity. The scrapbook, clothing, paint kit, and tea set will liven up the conversations. Discuss the artists at the end of the activity. What have you learned about them while acting these parts? James A.

This is why Statesmen, and more generally the leaders, always have the objective and concern to leave for posterity or to strengthen big cultural institutions. As proof of this we can quote, as examples, the Bibliothèque Nationale de France, the British Museum, the Monastery of Escorial or the many American Presidential Libraries which honor the memory of the various Presidents of the United States. Since the Holy Roman Empire and, notably, in Europe during the Renaissance times cultural sponsorship has been increasingly active for the sake of art or for the sense of splendor. Nowadays, if there is a country where sponsors have a constant and decisive presence in the world of the art, this is certainly the United States. Names given to museum rooms in memory of devoted sponsors, as well as labels next to the paintings noting the donor’s name, are a very visible aspect of cultural sponsorship, especially in America.

  • Monet and American Impressionism
    Harn Museum of Art Educator Resource Monet & Impressionism About the Artist Claude Monet was born in Paris on November 14, 1840. He enjoyed drawing lessons in school and began making and selling caricatures at age seventeen. In 1858, he met landscape artist Eugène Boudin (1824-1898) who introduced him to plein-air (outdoor) painting. During the 1860s, only a few of Monet’s paintings were accepted for exhibition in the prestigious annual exhibitions known as the Salons. This rejection led him to join with other Claude Monet, 1899 artists to form an independent group, later known as the Impressionists. Photo by Nadar During the 1860s and 1870s, Monet developed his technique of using broken, rhythmic brushstrokes of pure color to represent atmosphere, light and visual effects while depicting his immediate surroundings in Paris and nearby villages. During the next decade, his fortune began to improve as a result of a growing base of support from art dealers and collectors, both in Europe and the United States. By the mid-1880s, his paintings began to receive critical “Everyone discusses my acclaim. art and pretends to understand, as if it were By 1890, Monet was financially secure enough to purchase a house in Giverny, a rural town in Normandy. During these later years, Monet began painting the same subject over and over necessary to understand, again at different times of the day or year. These series paintings became some of his most when it is simply famous works and include views of the Siene River, the Thames River in London, Rouen necessary to love.” Cathedral, oat fields, haystacks and water lilies.

  • Center Bridge Burning
    Burning of Center Bridge, 1923 Edward W. Redfield (1869-1965 oil on canvas H. 50.25 x W 56.25 inches James A. Michener Art Museum, acquired with funds secured by State Senator Joe Conti, and gifts from Joseph and Anne Gardocki, and the Laurent Redfield Family Biography The Pennsylvania school born in the Academy at Philadelphia or in the person of Edward W. Redfield is a very concise expression of the simplicity of our language and of the prosaic nature of our sight. It is democratic painting—broad, without subtlety, vigorous in language if not absolutely in heart, blatantly obvious or honest in feeling. It is an unbiased, which means, inartistic, record of nature. —Guy Pene du Bois Among the New Hope impressionists, Edward Willis Redfield was the most decorated, winning more awards than any other American artist except John Singer Sargent. Primarily a landscape painter, Redfield was acclaimed as the most “American” artist of the New Hope school because of his vigor and individualism. Redfield favored the technique of painting en plein air, that is, outdoors amid nature. Tying his canvas to a tree, Redfield worked in even the most brutal weather. Painting rapidly, in thick, broad brushstrokes, and without attempting preliminary sketches, Redfield typically completed his paintings in one sitting. Although Redfield is best known for his snow scenes, he painted several spring and summer landscapes, often set in Maine, where he spent his summers. He also painted cityscapes, including, most notably, Between Daylight and Darkness (1909), an almost surreal, tonalist painting of the New York skyline in twilight.

  • Caroline Peart, American Artist
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Humanities MOMENTS OF LIGHT AND YEARS OF AGONY: CAROLINE PEART, AMERICAN ARTIST 1870-1963 A Dissertation in American Studies by Katharine John Snider ©2018 Katharine John Snider Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2018 The dissertation of Katharine John Snider was reviewed and approved* by the following: Anne A. Verplanck Associate Professor of American Studies and Heritage Studies Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Charles Kupfer Associate Professor of American Studies and History John R. Haddad Professor of American Studies and Popular Culture Program Chair Holly Angelique Professor of Community Psychology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the life of American artist Caroline Peart (1870-1963) within the context of female artists at the turn of the twentieth century. Many of these artists’ stories remain untold as so few women achieved notoriety in the field and female artists are a relatively new area of robust academic interest. Caroline began her formal training at The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts at a pivotal moment in the American art scene. Women were entering art academies at record numbers, and Caroline was among a cadre of women who finally had access to formal education. Her family had the wealth to support her artistic interest and to secure Caroline’s position with other elite Philadelphia-area families. In addition to her training at the Academy, Caroline frequently traveled to Europe to paint and she studied at the Academie Carmen.
