About the Item
Wonderful mid century California landscape of Clear Lake's Mount Konocti by Margaret E. Rogers (American, 1872-1961), c.1940. Signed "M.E. Rogers lower right. Titled "Konocti (Clear Lake)", signed "Margaret E. Rogers" on verso. Unframed. Image: 12"H x 18"W.
Margaret was one of the original "Jolly Daubers" with Cor DeGavere, Leonora Penniman and Louise Cunningham, Santa Cruz Art League Founding Members. She studied with Frank Heath on many wagon trips to Big Basin and Yosemite.
Born in Birmingham, England on May 1, 1872, the Rogers family immigrated to California in 1875 and established a prosperous sheep ranch in Monterey County. In her youth Margaret was known as one of the finest horsewomen in the West. The magazine Western Woman said of her, 'She could break the worst kind of bucking bronco without assistance; with the utmost ease she drove six or eight horses hitched together in a manner that would win admiration from the most experienced stage drivers of the old days." She left her fathers ranch in 1905 and moved to nearby Santa Cruz where she settled in the Seabright area. For many years Rogers lived in back of the old Tyrell house (now the site of the Natural History Museum on East Cliff Drive). It housed the Santa Cruz Art League of which she was a cofounder in 1919. Her art studies were under local artists Frank L. Heath and Lorenzo P. Latimer. She and her constant painting companions, Cornelia DeGavere and Leonora Penniman, were known as the "Santa Cruz Three" and made many camping trips into the Sierra and surrounding area. A spinster, she died in Santa Cruz, CA on March 15, 1961.

Wiggins (1883 - 1962) Locomotive Train in Snowstorm, 1957 Oil on paperboard 8 x 10 inches Signed lower left; signed and dated on the reverse Guy Carleton Wiggins is best known for his impressionistic snow scenes of New York in 1920's. Wiggins lived in Old Lyme and Essex where he operated an art school. The Connecticut country-side was conducive to his impressionist technique of plein-air painting and broken brushwork. Ironically, although his work includes many fine Connecticut landscapes, he is best remembered for some snow scenes of New York City. Like many other American Impressionists, Wiggins had one foot in the city and the other in the country (Vermont Hillside, South Londonderry). Wiggins was born in Brooklyn, New York, went to England with his family as a boy, received an English grammar school education, and traveled widely abroad. He was the son of a prominent artist, Carleton Wiggins, a painter in the Barbizon style who studied with George Inness and admired Anton Mauve and Dwight Tryon...Category
