About the Item
Here we have Charming Historical Southern painting “the chimneys plantation, in Cumberland Island off Georgia. Painting is by Martin B Leisser, (1846-1940) and dated 1907.
Depictd Chimneys in a beautiful impressionist landscape, with a path. Done by an American painter who is from Both Georgia and Pennsylvania
The Stafford plantation was built in the early 19th C by Robert Stafford who unfortunately had many slaves working on the property. The remnants of the chimney in present painting are part of the original homes the slaves lived on. Which makes
this artwork a historical painting. In 1877 when Stafford passed away, the property (+5,000 acres) was sold to the Carnegie Family.
All that remains of Stafford's house is a ruin known as "the Chimneys," a series of 24 hearth-and-chimney structures representing Stafford's slaves' housing, about one kilometer east of the main house.
Currently today the property is privately held under a life estate by a Carnegie descendant.

- 1977 REALIST African American SHOE SHINER Portrait Painting BLM ARTISTLocated in New York, NYArnold J. Hurley is an African American artist born 1944 Images on paper and canvas have been part of Arnold J. Hurley’s life since childhood. He fondly remembers the influences of his mother and an uncle, who both were creative and were sources of encouragement to him. As his interest in art grew, his mother provided creative inspiration, his father provided art supplies and his high school teacher steered him along a path toward developing painting and drawing skills. His budding artistic skills led Mr. Hurley to enroll at Tufts University where he earned both a Bachelor’s Degree in Education and a Master’s Degree in Fine Arts, with a major in painting. His skills helped him land a Ford Foundation grant in 1964 to attend the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. A native of Boston, Mr. Hurley taught painting for 12 years at several area colleges and museums including Emerson College and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Fitchburg Art Museum, Lowell University, Milton Academy, Boston Public Schools and Wesleyan University in Connecticut. He currently teaches art at Crossland High School in Prince George’s County, Maryland. Mr. Hurley’s approach to painting involves a realistic or representational style and his works vary from still life drawings to portraiture. He paints every day and follows this precept: “Never forget the basics—they will serve as the foundation throughout your creative life. Challenge yourself, and remember your art will change and grow. And always draw, draw and draw some more.” Mr. Hurley has earned more than 40 awards for his oil, watercolor and pastel paintings and his pencil drawings. These include the 1998 Robert Dodge...Category
