About the Item

Bold outlines and strong weighty forms coalesce with a compositional delicacy that forms the hallmark of Hartley's work. The work has a long and distinguished provenance and exhibition history. According to art historian Gail R. Scott, the painting was given by Hartley to his very good friend and patron, Adelaide Kuntz. Kuntz supported Hartley for many years with modest stipends in return for which he gave her many of his works. After his death, Kuntz gradually consigned or sold works and some were inherited by her daughter, Frances Malek after her death. In turn, Malek continued to sell the works through various galleries and auctions. Marsden Hartley (American, 1877–1943) Basket with Fruit 1922–23 Oil on canvas 13 3/4 x 25 1/2 in.
