House with gray shutters, oil on canvas, unsigned,
16" x 24" sight, 22.5"
x 30"
frame.
About the Painting: Very good condition, but would benefit from
a light clean and varnish.
About the Artist: Painter, illustrator, designer and craftsperson.
Born Boston; studied at Radcliffe, Parsons
School of Design and in Paris under I. Olinsky,
L. F. Emmet and G. Bridgman. The artist exhibited
at the Salon des Artistes Francais, Paris,
the New Haven Paint and Clay Club, New York
Watercolor Club, Philadelphia Watercolor
Club, Baltimore Watercolor Club, and the
National Arts Club in New York. By 1947,
her work was held by the MET and the Museum,
City of New York. Like many artists of the
period, her paintings rarely appear in the
market.
Belfast House was signed Marion C. Whiteside '38 and was
framed by F. J. Harris & Son of Bath,
England. Presumably, it was shown in England
and returned with the artist to the United
States after her studies in France. The House with gray shutters has an old tag from Hyannis Auction Rooms,
Dick Bourne, and the lot number
123A. While
the latter painting is unsigned,
both paintings
appear to be by the same hand,
and we are
confident of our attribution.
