About the Item

Palm Springs Courtyard with Fountain - Drypoint Etching on Paper Stately drypoint etching of the courtyard of a Palm Springs house by Leland "Lee" Fuller (American, 1899-1962). The focus of this piece is the courtyard of a house with a fountain. Behind the garden and fountain, there is a section of the house with an arched doorway and tile roof. This was likely a house that Fuller designed. From the Robert Azensky Fine Art Mary Pickford Collection. Mary Pickford was one of the founders of United Artists and hired many designers, photographers and cinema photographers. This was a gift form Leland Fuller to Mary Pickford circa 1925. Initialed and dated in plate "L.f.f. 1925" Signed in the lower right corner "Lee F Fuller" Paper mounted on cardboard Presented in a new cream mat with foamcore backing Mat size: 13"H x 11"W Board size: 11.5"H x 9"W Santa Monica-based architect Leland F. Fuller (American, 1899-1962) designed and built residences for wealthy clients and the Hollywood elite during the 1920s and 1930s. He worked as an art director in the motion picture industry. Fuller was a member of the AIA between 1933 and 1938. He worked in the various period revival styles popular during the pre-World War II period. One of his largest and best-known commissions was the Tudor Revival-style residence in Beverly Hills for Charles and Al Christie (known as “Waverly”). Fuller’s work was published nationally and internationally in such magazines as House Beautiful, Architect & Engineer, and Abitare. He also designed the “El Kantara” house in Palm Springs. His own home in Santa Monica was singled out for the Better Homes in America Small House Competition for 1932 and published in Architect & Engineer. For his work as an art director, he was nominated for six Academy Awards. At the time of his retirement, he was an art director for 20th Century Fox Studios.
