About the Item

Impressionist oil painting of a boat sitting at the dock by Harriet Randall Lumis. A perfect piece for your shore/beach house! The painting is framed and has the artist's name and title of the piece. Dimensions Without Frame: H 20 in. x W 18 in. Artist Biography: Born in Salem, Connecticut, Harriet Lumis used the palette and technique of French Impressionist artists and was a founding member of the Academic Artists Association, a group opposed to abstract art. She married architect Fred Lumis and then in 1893, began art studies in Springfield, Massachusetts. She first painted landscapes with Connecticut artist Leonard Ochtman from whom she learned the tonalist style. She also studied with Parker Hayden at the New York Summer School in Cos Cob, Connecticut, and beginning 1920, with Hugh Breckenridge at his School of Art in East Gloucester, Massachusetts. In 1921, she joined the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors. In the 1930s, Carson, Pirie Scott and Company of Chicago handled her work, and she moved away from her former heavy impasto technique to a more wash-like, broad application of color. In 1949, she invited to her studio other traditional artists, those standing firm for realism against the encroaching modernism, to found the Academic Artists Association. For the remainder of her career, she taught private art lessons and remained true to the plein air method of painting. She died in Springfield, Massachusetts on April 6, 1953. Provenance: From a Private Collection.
