Ruth Eckstein
Ruth Eckstein was born in Nuremberg, Germany on May 11, 1916. As a teenager, she worked in her father’s fabric store and then took an early interest in art. Around 1930, she met George Eckstein, a friend of her brother Gus, who worked in a family toy business. George was active in left-leaning political activities and in 1933, the Nazis arrested him and he spent several months in jail. After his release, he fled to Switzerland and then to Paris. Eckstein joined him there in 1934. She and George lived in Paris for 5 years, where they married and were active members of the German refugee community, working as toy makers producing stuffed dolls. It was in Paris that their first daughter, Margaret, was born. In 1939, fearing a Nazi invasion, George and Ruth left Paris for New York City.

- ResurrectionBy Henry BotkinLocated in Boston, MASigned lower left: "Botkin". Henry Botkin (1896-1983) was a mid-century American modernist equally known as a painter, a collage artist, and for his work as a proponent of abstract art. Botkin’s oeuvre can be defined by three distinct styles—School of Paris Modernism, Cubism, and Abstract Expressionism. While each of the three styles is considered distinct, music can be seen as the common thread throughout his artistic output. In the 1930s, the impact of Gershwin’s opera “Porgy and Bess” is readily apparent in works such as Woman in Boat...Category
