About the Item

Nikol Schattenstein (1877 - 1954) Day at the Beach Oil on canvas 27 3/4 x 33 1/2 inches Signed lower left Provenance: Descended in the family of the artist Estate of Howard Aronson Doyle New York, Fine Art, September 28, 2021, Lot 1045 Born in Panemune, which is in present-day Lithuania, Nikol Schattenstein studied at the Academy in Vienna and moved to Berlin in 1906. He was best known for his portrait paintings. Regina Vanderbilt, Raoul Auernheimer and Lev Trotsky were among his sitters. In 1939, Schattenstein immigrated to the United States and exhibited his work in New York galleries such as Duveen-Graham, Schoneman and French & Co. He was, at times, requested to paint portraits of historical founding members and old board members of major companies such as the Insurance Company of North America. He had to recreate time and dress as he painted portraits of people before his time. He showed an ability to capture the feeling of physical presence and liveliness, which was evident in all of his portraits.

"Village Green" Mary Bradish Titcomb, Bright American Impressionist Landscape
Located in New York, NY
Mary Bradish Titcomb Village Green Signed lower left Oil on canvas 24 x 20 inches A native of Windham, New Hampshire, upon graduation from high school, Titcomb studied at the Massachusetts Normal Art School, before accepting a position as a drawing teacher in the public schools of Brockton, Massachusetts, where she remained for fourteen years before resigning, in 1889, to study painting at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Her instructors there included Edmund Charles Tarbell, Philip Leslie Hale, and Frank Weston Benson. In the 1890s she went to Paris to study with Jules Joseph Lefebvre and to travel. She then returned to Boston, taking studio space at the Harcourt Studios, where all three of her teachers kept space. In 1895 she became a member of the Copley Society and began exhibiting locally; from 1904 to 1927 she showed work in 29 exhibits at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. She began signing her name as "M. Bradish Titcomb" in 1905 to avoid prejudice against her gender. The same year saw her making a sketching trip to the artists' colony at Old Lyme, Connecticut, a center for the American Impressionists; this trip seems to have cemented her interest in the style. In 1915, Titcomb's Portrait of Geraldine J. – the mother of actress Jane Russell – was shown at the Corcoran Gallery of Art and purchased by President Woodrow Wilson; another portrait, of Frank P. Sibley, was reproduced in the Boston Globe. During this period her work was shown in a traveling exhibition with that of Cecilia Beaux, Lydia Field Emmet, Jean MacLane...

As a muralist, he has filled commissions for the National Park Service, the Royal Saudi Naval Headquarters, and the E.E. Fogelson Vistor Center at Pecos National Monument in New Mexico.

In 1990, he was voted official artist for Scottsdale's Parada del Sol, the "world's largest" horse-drawn parade commemorating the Old West.
