| Paul Turner Sargent |
Brown County Overlook |
 |
This painting appeared in our weekly email on 6/24/16 with the following gallery comments:
Paul Turner Sargent was born and raised outside Charleston, IL and never left the family farm. His subject matter as a painter was not terribly far afield – many paintings featuring Eastern Illinois, some Chicago locations and otherwise, Brown County where he often ventured to paint. Today’s painting Brown County Overlook (or title) is one of those dear Brown County scenes. It was suggested that perhaps it’s a view from T.C. Steele’s property. Entirely possible since the piece was created in 1922, four years before Steele’s passing. The painting is clean and in very good condition. The original frame was recently restored (in-house) and has a great patina to it. A very nice example featuring an iconic Brown County vista. |

Edna Stubbs Cathell was born in Richmond, IN in 1867. She studied under her mother (Emily Stubbs, an artist herself) during her younger years. She graduated from Earlham College in 1888 and travelled to Iowa to study further at the Cumming School of Art. She returned to Richmond and married in 1890 with the family bouncing back to Iowa in 1895. The Cathells eventually returned to Richmond in 1907 where they remained for the rest of her life. She was very active with the Richmond Art Association, the Palette Club and appeared in a handful of Hoosier Salon Annual Exhibitions. Later in her career she found work with the Joseph Hill Company, a Richmond firm that was an early hybridizer of roses. Her work with Hill focused on the exacting reproduction of new varieties for submission to the U.S. Patent Office. Beyond her paid gig, nearly all of her output was floral still lifes with a particular concentration on roses. Today’s painting is right out of that playbook – Roses per stretcher notation, verso (help us out here Edna…!). It’s clearly the type of painting she pursued throughout her whole artistic career. The painting has been cleaned, re-varnished and is in great condition. It’s been re-presented in an antique reproduction frame and it's ready to hang. A soft and beautiful work from a Richmond rose specialist. |

| Genevieve Goth Graf |
Bouquet in Blue Pitcher |

This painting appeared in our weekly email on 6/10/16 with the following gallery comments:
Genevieve Goth Graf was an angel. She supported her sister, Marie Goth, through her studies. And upon Marie’s return to Indianapolis, Genevieve helped Marie relocate to Brown County. She did this as a teacher and it’s always struck me as a most selfless act. Genevieve was a frequent visitor to Nashville and in the course of that, met and married fellow artist Carl Graf. Her output is more limited than that of her sister and her husband because she worked full time. Today’s painting, Bouquet in Blue Pitcher is very representative of her style. She concentrated on still lifes and loved to set them up as a little tableau -- often employing objects beyond the flowers. The painting has been cleaned and re-varnished and is in very good condition. It’s housed in a gold antique reproduction frame and ready to hang. |
