About the Item

Virginia Granbery (1831-1921) was an accomplished American artist known for her work in watercolor and oil paintings. Granbery's works predominantly featured landscapes, floral studies, and still life compositions, often drawing inspiration from the natural beauty of the American South. Her use of vibrant colors and delicate brushwork earned her recognition and acclaim in artistic circles. She was particularly adept at capturing the subtleties of light and shadow, which brought a sense of realism and depth to her paintings. Throughout her career, Granbery exhibited her art widely, including at the National Academy of Design and various other galleries. Her contributions to the art world were significant at a time when female artists struggled to gain recognition. This painting features a wonderful contrast between light and shadow in a lively field landscape, and delicately portrays the two young girls in the foreground. This painting is in excellent condition and comes signed lower left with frame.
