About the Item

A wonderfully strong example of Pigeon Cove in Rockport, MA. Housed in a 22k gold leaf hand-made PSArt frame. Charles Movalli (1945–2016) had a BA from Clark University and a PhD from the University of Connecticut. He painted and wrote about art for over thirty years. He belonged to the North Shore Arts Association, the Rockport Art Association, The Guild of Boston Artists, Academic Artists, Hudson Valley Art Association, and the New England Watercolor Society. Although he worked primarily in acrylic, he was also a Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America. He received Life Achievement Awards from the Oil Painters of America (1991), Rockport Art Association (1999), and Hudson Valley Art Association (2002). Movalli judged shows all over the United States and lectured and demonstrated for over a hundred different art organizations. He also conducted painting workshops in 24 states, Bermuda, Mexico, Canada, England, France, and Switzerland. Movalli is also listed in Who's Who in American Art. "Artist, author, teacher and jurist, Charles Movalli relished his reputation as an avant-garde painter and a man of letters. Others viewed him as a bridge between traditionalism and the modernists, not only on Cape Ann and the North Shore, but across the country, and as far afield as Europe. Charles Movalli touched the lives of everyone who knew him; through his art, his vision, his writing, and his teaching . . ." – Judith Curtis

American Impressionist Paul Cornoyer, "Bearksin Neck, Rockport"
By Paul Cornoyer
Located in Rockport, MA
Paul Cornoyer, born in 1864 in St. Louis, Missouri, was an American Impressionist artist. Initially studying at the St. Louis School of Fine Arts under Halsey C. Ives, he began his artistic journey painting in a style reminiscent of the Barbizon School. His first exhibition took place in 1887, followed by further studies in Paris at the Académie Julian under notable instructors such as Jules Lefebre, Louis Blanc, and Benjamin Constant. Inspired by French Impressionism during his travels to Paris, London, and Venice, Cornoyer embraced a more fluid and tonal style, particularly evident in his landscapes and cityscapes. Returning to St. Louis in 1894, he painted a mural at the Planters Hotel, depicting the city's birth. Over the next six years, little is known about his work except for the creation of a significant triptych titled "A View of St. Louis," which became iconic for the city. Encouraged by the artist William Merritt Chase, Cornoyer moved to New York City in 1899, where he gained recognition for his urban cityscapes, particularly scenes after rainfall. Capturing the essence of city life with vivid depictions of streets, carriages, and towering buildings, Cornoyer's work became synonymous with New York's urban landscape. He also taught at the Mechanics Institute and mingled with prominent artists such as Childe Hassam and J. Alden Weir, expanding his artistic circle to include New England art schools. In 1917, Cornoyer relocated permanently to Massachusetts, establishing his studio in East Gloucester. He played a pivotal role in founding the Gloucester Art...
