Robert Jenkins Onderdonk (1852 - 1917) San Antonio Artist Image Size: 6 3/4 x 8 Frame Size: 13 x 15 Medium: Ceramic Tile "Texas Landscape" signed Biography Robert Jenkins Onderdonk (1852 - 1917) Robert Jenkins Onderdonk is noted for his landscape and portrait paintings and also for his fine art teaching. Onderdonk was born in Catonsville, Maryland in 1852. He was the father of Robert Julian Onderdonk and Eleanor Rogers Onderdonk, also distinguished Texas artists. He received an academic education at the College of St. James, Catonsville, followed by studies at the National Academy of Design in 1872 under the instruction of Lemuel Everett Wilmarth. In 1875, Onderdonk attended Art Students League of New York and received instruction from Walter Shirlaw, James Carroll Beckwith and William Merritt Chase. Onderdonk moved to San Antonio, Texas in 1878 where he made a living teaching and selling his paintings. In 1889 he moved to Dallas, where he painted several portraits for the Huburt Portrait Company, followed by employment with the Art Students League of Dallas. In 1896, Onderdonk returned to San Antonio, Texas where he continued to paint until his death in 1917. Onderdonk was a member of the Allied Artists of America; Salmagundi Club, New York, and the San Antonio Art League. Exhibitions included the Annual Exhibition of the State Fair of Texas, Dallas; Dallas Art Association; Louisiana Purchase Exposition, St. Louis; Annual Texas Artists Exhibition, Fort Worth; Annual Exhibition, National Academy of Design, New York, and the San Antonio Art League. Source: John and Deborah Powers, "Texas Painters, Sculptors, and Graphic Artists" Robert Jenkins Onderdonk was born at St. Timothy's Hall, Catonsville Maryland, in 1852. He had a very thorough academic education and was always sketching family members, classmates and landscapes on the back of his school books. This sketching ethic was a process he subscribed to his entire life, always carrying a sketch book with him where ever he went, like a camera of today. Deciding to make art his profession, Robert moved to New York. He was not only a part of the academic beginnings of American art while studying in New York at the renowned National Academy of Design in 1870, but also one of the first student members, under the instruction of Lemuel Everett Wilmarth, at the Arts Students League. At the League, Robert also studied and honed his craft with other teachers including Walter Shirlaw, William Merritt Chase and James Carroll Beckwith. Some of his classmates included: George Inness, Jr., Frederick Stuart Church, John Henry Twachtman and a Texan from San Antonio named Edward Grenet. Robert was lured to Texas in 1879 by his childhood friend and rancher, William Negely and by stories he read in the tabloids of the day that touted Texas as the "Promised Land." Robert found the light, people and atmosphere of San Antonio agreeable and quickly settled in. He soon met a fellow Texas artist, Emily Gould, whom he married in 1881. They lived with her parents in a house called "Bella Vista" throughout their lives. The house was two miles north of town, had a wonderful view of the city and still stands today. Here Robert lived and taught art classes, painted portrait commissions, landscapes, still lifes and supported his family. Some of his students, who later became well-known Texas artists, were Mary Bonner...

This lithographic colored advertising poster entitled "Tom Sawyer Detective, A New Story by Mark Twain" was created by Edward Penfield in 1897 for Harper & Brothers. The artist's signature appears in the plate in the lower left. The poster depicts a man in a long black bathing suit sitting with his knees up, aimlessly smoking a cigarette, but looking out of the corner of his eyes at a woman in a olive green dress and tan blouse and a black hat, who sits to his left with her head propped in her left hand and a bored or concerned look on her face. The look on the faces of the couple creates an air of mystery. The title of the book is printed in red in the upper left and the issue "Harper's August" in bold letters in the lower poster. The poster promotes a new book by Mark Twain that was published initially in two issues of Harper's Monthly and also in book form by Harper & Brothers in 1896. It is a sequel to "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", published in 1876, "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", published in 1884, and "Tom Sawyer Abroad", also published in 1894. The plot of the book involves Tom Sawyer attempting to solve a mysterious murder. The story is told using the first-person narrative voice of his friend Huck Finn...

Arthur Kemp Tebby (1866–1935) English Rose Arbor, circa 1890 Oil on wooden panel, signed lower right. Arthur Kemp Tebby was among the finest English painters of gardens and floral landscapes working during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. A gifted colourist and accomplished plein air painter, Tebby became celebrated for his depictions of English country gardens in full bloom, capturing the fleeting beauty of the seasons with remarkable delicacy and atmosphere. Influenced by both the French Impressionists and the rich tradition of British landscape painting, his works possess a freshness and luminosity that have made them enduringly sought after by collectors. This enchanting painting portrays a magnificent rose-covered arbor in the height of summer, inviting the viewer along a quiet garden path beneath cascades of climbing roses in shades of crimson, blush pink and ivory. Dappled sunlight filters gently through the foliage, illuminating the gravel walkway and creating a harmonious interplay of light and shadow. The abundance of flowering shrubs, carefully observed botanical detail and softly diffused background combine to evoke the tranquillity and romance of an English country garden at its seasonal peak. Executed with Tebby’s characteristic sensitivity, the composition demonstrates his mastery of colour and texture. Delicate brushwork captures the profusion of blooms without sacrificing spontaneity, while subtle tonal transitions lend remarkable depth and atmosphere. The artist’s restrained palette of soft greens, warm earth tones and vibrant floral highlights creates an elegant balance that is both decorative and naturalistic. Painted around 1890, this work belongs to a period when Tebby was producing some of his most accomplished garden scenes, subjects that remain among his most desirable. His paintings celebrate the Victorian passion for cultivated gardens while embracing the increasingly Impressionistic handling of light and colour that distinguished progressive British artists of the era. Beautifully presented in an elegant gilt frame, this charming painting is a quintessential example of late nineteenth-century English garden painting...
