Laura Van Pappelendam
Four Vases of Flowers

About the Item

A beautifully executed floral still life oil painting by American artist and educator Laura van Pappelendam (1883-1974). Pappelendam was born in Donnelson, Iowa, studied from 1904-1909 at the School of the Art Institute, continuing with classes until she received a Bachelor of Arts degree in art education in 1926. Pappelendam gained a doctorate in 1929 from the University of Chicago, where she helped establish both the Department of Art in 1924 and the Renaissance Club, and then taught in the University Department of Art part time from 1919 to 1948, overlapping with the Art Institute where she taught for fifty years, from 1909-1959. Amazingly for all of the energy she devoted to teaching, she is equally and perhaps best remembered as an oil painter, whose subjects included Southwest landscapes and scenes from Florence, Arizona. She won numerous awards and had her work included in 250 art exhibitions both here and abroad. Oil on canvas, unsigned, titled on verso Fenn Galleries (Santa Fe, NM) and Owings-Dewey Fine Arts Gallery (Santa Fe, NM) label “Four Vases of Flowers,” and housed in a molded giltwood frame. The painting descended from the estate of the artist. Dimensions: 27 in H x 33 in W, actual; 32.5 in H x 38.5 in W x 1.25 in D. Ref: 12120
