Comments/Other: Pavlosky, born in the Russian Ukraine and descended from three previous generations of artists, came to America via Poland at the age of 20 to avoid military conscription. Settling in Boston, he was attracted by the colorful fishing communities of the North Shore and soon specialized in portraying the life of the Cape Ann fishermen and the spectacular scenery of the Gloucester area. His entry in the 1923 Museum of Fine Arts Boston artists\' competition placed Second to John Singer Sargent\'s First. Pavlosky outlined his working method and philosophy of art in a contemporary newspaper interview: "Sometimes a painter has to stop and think about his work, and wonder if he could do better in a different manner. When I feel that mood, I take up my violin and walk around the studio playing. After a few minutes of rest that way I have a fresh idea, and with my violin and bow in my left hand I put in some quick strokes with the brush and often do much better than if I had not played...The artist should be the happiest man alive, because art and the love of the beautiful are the finest gifts God has made us. The joy of catching the living world with a few strokes of the brush and a few colors is unending. All good painting should express the beauty of Nature." He exhibited widely to great success, including shows at the Grace Horn Gallery, Vose Galleries, the Gallery-on-the-Moors, the Gloucester Society of Artists, the Gloucester Art Association and the North Shore Arts Association. Pavlosky was a Boston watercolorist and exhibited his works widely in Boston galleries and museum shows from the 1920s to his death in 1944. He is best known for his landscapes, many of New England coastal subjects, as well as fishing and hunting scenes. His obituary referred to him as [one] of the foremost water color painters in greater Boston , and a leading member of the Boston Society of Water Color Painters. He also completed many mural commissions in Boston , including St. Mary's Polish Church in Boston and the Fenway and Orpheum Theaters. In 2002, a large group of his paintings was rediscovered, leading to a renewed interest in his work among art collectors and historians. In the 1920s, Pavlosky's painting The White Peacock was awarded second prize at an exhibition of the works of Boston artists at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston -- the first prize was won by John Singer Sargent. Pavlosky received great publicity for this, including an article in a Boston periodical by M.J. Curl entitled Boston Artists and Sculptors in Intimate Talks saved by Pavlosky with his personal papers. In the article, the author quotes Pavlosky's personal philosophy of art: An artist should be a good, honest man, true to his work, true to nature. Art is the expression of the soul; to paint well one must live well. The moment an artist begins to think whether his work will sell, he does less commendable work, he is less of an artist. We saw one of his works selling at $14,000 in a gallery in 1987. In 2004, a 25"x30" oil of his sold for over $8,000 and a watercolor sold for just under $4,000 in 2006. These were sold at auction and therefore sold at much less than what one would expect in a gallery. This Autumn Scene is also a very large piece for this artist. Frequent auction prices have been about $7000 – with galleries asking more. ------------------------------------------------------ Vladimir Pavlosky Russian-American Artist: b. 1884-1944. Vladimir Pavlosky was an artist by family tradition, born into a long line of Russian interior decorators skilled in painting, gilding and carving. He immigrated to the United States at age twenty, five years after the death of his father, to avoid service in the Tsar's Army. Upon arriving in New York, he quickly left for Boston, which was known internationally as the center for learning and art in America, and set up a small studio. Because of his father's reputation and his own skills as an allegorical painter, Pavlosky soon received mural commissions from churches and theatres in the Boston area, including St. Mary's Polish Church, The Fenway Theater, the Orpheum Theater and the Strand Theater in Lynn, Massachusetts. His work includes landscapes, harbors/working dock scenes, as well as scenes of romantic features with bright colors and features reminsicent of Maxfield Parrish. Pavlosky was a member of the Boston Watercolor Society and the Gloucester Art Association and exhibited widely including the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the Gloucester and Rockport Art Associations, and the North Shore Art Association. -------------------------------------------------
