William BurpeeLandscape
About the Item
Signed lower left
Landscape and figure painter William Partridge Burpee was born in Rockland, Maine on April 13, 1846. As a young man, he was educated in Rockland schools and in the Kents Hill Academy in Readfield, Maine. He exhibited a great deal of interest as a youth in painting and drawing, In the late 1870s, he studied with marine painter, William Bradford (1823-1894). Burpee's early work of the 1880s reflects Bradford's influence as well as other painters such as Martin Johnson Heade, Fitz Hugh Lane, Frederic Edwin Church, A. T. Bricher and F. A. Silva.
After briefly advertising himself as an artist in the Rockland City Directory in 1882, Burpee appeared that year in Boston. By September 1, 1885, he was painting figures on Lynn Beach, Massachusetts, between Nahant and Swampscott in a style that now reflected the influence of French painting particularly Eugene Boudin and Emile Louis Vernier. He showed life of the beach with children at play, dorymen, lobstermen, netmenders, women waiting for the return of the boats, clamdiggers, and drying and folding sails. He began exhibiting in Boston in 1881 (Massachusetts Charitable Mechanics Association) and soon became a regular exhibitor (1890) and a member (1894) of the Boston Art Club. Until his trip abroad, Burpee maintained a position in bookkeeping and accounting.
In 1897, Burpee, age 51, left Boston to tour Spain, Italy, France and England by bicycle. It was with this trip that he was able to quit his non-art employment. He returned to the United States in 1899 and the next year spent the summer in Holland, where he discovered pastel. At the St. Louis Exposition, in 1904, he received a bronze medal in this medium. That same year, many of his paintings were burned in a fire in the Harcourt Studio Building in Boston, but he was a productive worker, and did approximately 800 paintings after this tragedy.
He also exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Philadelphia; Art Institute of Chicago, Illinois; Corcoran Gallery, Washington D.C., the American Watercolor Society, the L. D. M. Sweat Museum (now Portland Museum of Art), in Maine; the Boston Society of Watercolor Painters and the Copley Society, Boston.
Burpee's paintings may be seen in the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Springfield, Massachusetts; Rockland Public Library; Cheekwood, Nashville, Tennessee; Columbia Museum of Art, Columbia, S.C.; Louisiana State University Museum of Art; the William A. Farnsworth Museum, Rockland, Maine; and the Portland Museum of Art, Maine.
D. Roger Howlett wrote two books about the artist. "William Partridge Burpee: American Marine Impressionist" and, in 1994, "The Lynn Beach Painters: Art Along the North Shore 1880 - 1920".
Burpee last lived in Boston in 1913. By 1914, he was back in Rockland, Maine. From 1927-1933, he divided his time between Rockland and East Orange, N.J. He died in Rockland in 1940

Impressions de New York No. 3
Located in Saratoga Springs, NY
David Solot, a dentist and painter, was born in Falciu (Romania) and
settled in Paris in 1928. His art was surrealistic dentally inspired plus
portraits and city landscapes.
****************************
Translated from an article by Luana Hrisanti Rigot:
"In 1956, at the Charlotte Norberg Gallery (Paris), he presented his first personal exhibition, composed of an ensemble of surrealist paintings of professional inspiration (dental elements). Two years later, at Gallery Royale (Rochefort), he exhibits another 50 paintings on the subject. At that time, a decisive event for the painter David Solot was made: a great new-York-born antibiotic producer Lederle Cy learns about his work and contacts him through the US Ambassador to Paris, proposing an advertising contract and buying the reproduction right for 24 of its canvases. A year later, the same company bought the right to print three of its cloths in color. This was the starting point of his international notoriety.
