John Appleton Brown
Snowy Afternoon
Signed lower right
Oil on canvas
18 x 24 inches
Starting in 1866, John Appleton Brown trained at the Louvre in Paris under the guidance of Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot and Charles Fraçois Daubigny. Their influence was profound, leading him to adopt a Barbizon style in his artwork.
In 1868, he returned to Boston and wed the painter Agnes Bartlett. By 1874, they had moved back to France, where they created art in Ville d’ary, the residence of Corot.
Upon returning to Maine, their work became recognized for depicting Spring, often featuring images of flourishing apple orchards. This earned John the nickname “Apple Blossom Brown. ”
He spent summers at the residence of Celia Thaxter on Appledore, a small island among the Isles of Shoals in New Hampshire and Maine. Thaxter was a poet and essayist who welcomed artists and writers during the summer months. John Appleton Brown mingled there with other prominent New England artists of his time, including the well-known impressionist Childe Hassam.
His artwork is on display at various institutions, including the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, Maine, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the Telfair Museum of Art in Savannah, Georgia, the Currier Museum of Art in Manchester, New Hampshire, the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts in Hagerstown, Maryland, and the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, Connecticut.
John Appleton Brown passed away in 1902 at the age of 58.

William Sharp was born on June 13, 1900, in Lemberg, Austria, where he attended college and the Academy for Arts and Industry. He later studied in Kraków, Poland, and in Berlin and Munich, Germany. Sharp began his career as a designer of stained-glass windows and as a painter of murals. He served in the German army during World War I. After the war he became a newspaper artist in Berlin and a well-known etcher.
Sharp drew political cartoons that were bitterly critical of the growing Nazi movement. As the influence of National Socialism intensified, he began to contribute drawings, under a pseudonym, to publications that were hostile to Hitler. After Hitler assumed power, Sharp was confronted with these drawings and told that he would be sent to a concentration camp. However, in 1934, he escaped to the United States.

Charles Green Shaw, born into a wealthy New York family, began painting when he was in his mid-thirties. A 1914 graduate of Yale, Shaw also completed a year of architectural studies at Columbia University. During the 1920s Shaw enjoyed a successful career as a freelance writer for The New Yorker, Smart Set and Vanity Fair, chronicling the life of the theater and café society. In addition to penning insightful articles, Shaw was a poet, novelist and journalist. In 1927 he began to take a serious interest in art and attended Thomas Hart Benton's class at the Art Students League briefly in New York. He also studied privately with George Luks, who became a good friend. Once he had dedicated himself to non-traditional painting, Shaw's writing ability made him a potent defender of abstract art.
After initial study with Benton and Luks, Shaw continued his artistic education in Paris by visiting numerous museums and galleries. From 1930 to 1932 Shaw's paintings evolved from a style imitative of Cubism to one directly inspired by it, though simplified and more purely geometric. Returning to the United States in 1933, Shaw began a series of abstracted cityscapes of skyscrapers he called Manhattan Motifs which evolved into his most famous works, the shaped canvases he called Plastic Polygons.
The 1930s were productive years for Shaw. He showed his paintings in numerous group exhibitions, both in New York and abroad, and was also given several one-man exhibitions. Shaw had his first one-man exhibition at the Valentine Dudensing Gallery in New York in 1934, which included 25 Manhattan Motif paintings and 8 abstract works. In the spring of 1935 Shaw was introduced to Albert Gallatin and George L.K. Morris. Gallatin was so impressed with Shaw's work, he broke a policy against solo exhibitions at his museum, the Gallery of Living Art, and offered Shaw an exhibition there. In the summer of 1935 Shaw traveled to Paris with Gallatin and Morris who provided introductions to many great painters. Shaw regularly spent time with John Ferren and Jean Hélion. The following year Gallatin organized an exhibition called Five Contemporary American Concretionists at the Reinhardt Gallery that included Shaw, Ferren, and Morris, Alexander Calder, and Charles Biederman...
