1757 Oil on Canvas. Condition Report: The canvas has been relined, and does not appear to have suffered any major damages. The paint surface, which been quite recently cleaned and varnished, is in very good condition. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals a couple of dots of retouching. Signed and dated lower left: Vollerdt. fe. 1757. // Johann Christian Vollerdt specialized in tasteful pastiches of painters of the century of Rembrandt. He was the pupil of Alexander Thiele and studied the colouring of the Dutch masters of the previous century in the collections of the Electoral Gallery in Dresden. His first works were mostly inspired by Griffier; for instance, "View on the Border of the Rhine" (Bordeaux, Musée des Beaux-Arts, n. 156). He worked mostly in the Northern Germany and was given numerous commissions by Prussian and Saxon art lovers. Among his most interesting landscapes are those at the Museo Civico Correr in Venice and at the Gemäldegalerie in Dresden. HIGH RESOLUTION PHOTO AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

Description:
ca. 1928. A large portrait by Cummings of his stepdaughter, Diana Barton, with one of her dogs at Joy Farm in New Hampshire, sometime between 1927 and 1930. Diana was born in 1921; Cummings met Anne Barton in 1925 and they spent several summers at Joy Farm beginning in 1927. Diana is standing outside, with her dog at her side and Mount Chocorua in the background. One of the best-loved American poets of the 20th century, Cummings was also a prolific visual artist: he considered writing and painting to be his "twin obsessions." He exhibited his work in the annual Society of Independent Artists shows from 1916-1927, and he was the art editor of The Dial magazine, the preeminent Modernist literary journal in the U.S., in the 1920s. In 1933, Cummings published a book of his artwork in a limited edition. Called CIOPW, it took its title from the media he used in his art: charcoal, ink, oil, pencil and watercolors. In his early years he emphasized abstract painting; from the 1930s on he tended toward…

Description:
Undated. 16" x 13". Oil on wood. Framed. A portrait of Cummings' wife, Marion Morehouse, reclining on a bed in a position reminiscent, presumably deliberately, of Goya's "The Naked Maja." Goya's painting was considered scandalous in its day, in a way that some of Cummings' artwork -- especially his erotic paintings of strippers, lovers, and sensuous nudes -- were in his own time, or at least he seems to have intended them to be. A stylized image, foreshortening perspective and thus alluding to Cummings' origins as an abstract, rather than realist, painter. Fine. Letter of provenance provided. No Binding. Fine.
