About the Item
A wonderful turn of century landscape of a stream in wooded glen by American artist Joline Butler Smith (American, 1849-1946). Signed lower right corner. Condition: Very good: One tear and two abrasions professionally repaired; inpainted. Unframed. Image size: 14"H x 17"W. (Last image is "before".)
Joline Butler Smith, whom lived most his life in Madison, Connecticut, was a landscape and portrait painter. He attended the first class at Yale School of The Fine Arts, 1869-70 (certificate; awarded B.F.A. 1898) and served as librarian at the school from 1877 to 1878. In 1887, he studied at the Atelier of Gerome and The Academie Julian in Paris, and exhibited that same year a painting entitled "Going Home" at The National Academy of Design in new York City.
Smith was associated for several years with the Tiffany Glass Company in New York City, where two windows painted by him entitled Autumn and Spring were loaned by Tiffany and exhibited at the Architectural League of New York, also in 1887. Additional Tiffany commissions were the Davenport Group and three south windows in Center Church, New Haven, as well as new churches in New York City and elsewhere in the United States.
He exhibited sketches at the Kit Kat Club, N.Y.C. with posters by Will H. Bradley in 1896, and maintained an art glass studio at 149 Orange St., New Haven for designing and painting stained glass windows from 1898 to 1916. Local glass commissions include First Methodist Church, St. Paul's Church and the chapel at Evergreen Cemetery, New Haven; Congregation Church, West Winsted and others.
From 1902 to 1906 he served as assistant in Illustration and Decorative Design, Yale School of The Fine Arts with John F. Weir and John Niemeyer. Engaged in landscape, portrait painting and stained glass window design, he was a member of the New Haven Paint And Clay Club, and exhibited at it's charter exhibition in 1900 and twelve additional times until 1921. He was also a member of the Acorn Club.
Studies at historical archives in Madison have revealed that he also drew sketches of a historical home, the Thomas Wilcox Homestead in then East Guilford, Connecticut. Though unsigned, accompanying written documents prove the sketch to be by his hand. A handwritten note explains how Smith tore down the house and used the lumber to build a new one, which was bought by the Shoreline Universalist Church as their meetinghouse in 1968.
