Vollian Rann
Boat to Sea

About the Item

Vollian Burr Rann was a painter and printmaker known for vivid, impressionistic landscapes and seascapes depicting Cape Cod, as well as portraiture. He worked primarily with oils and watercolors, although he frequently produced woodblock prints. Rann Studied at the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design at George Washington University, and at the National Academy of Design with Charles Webster Hawthorne. He was a member of the Provincetown Arts Association Museum where he acceded to honorary Vice President. He exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and the National Academy of Design, among others. Rann had a school in Provincetown for a number of years and was an instructor to Nancy Whorf, among others. This dramatic maritime depiction lacks none of Théodore Géricault’s narrative ferocity.

  • The Spring Waves, Monhegan Island
    By Wilson Henry Irvine
    Located in Washington, DC
    Following two decades of successful impressionistic landscape painting, Wilson Henry Irvine became known for a new experimental style in the 1930s. In 1930, Irvine began making prismatic paintings—landscapes and still-lifes rendered as though seen through a glass prism. The effect accentuated the play of light on the edges of objects. Irvine remained committed to this style of prismatic painting throughout the 1930s, winning the best-picture award in 1934 for a picture of a life-sized nude at the annual exhibition of the Lyme Art...
