Late 19th Century Tonalist Landscape -- Afternoon by the Pond
Located in Soquel, CA
Gorgeous tonalist oil painting woman walking in field by pond with home in background by Willis Seaver Adams (American, 1844-1921), circa 1880. Trees and an amazing sky in the background add depth and interest to this beautiful piece. Signed "W. S. Adams" lower right corner. Condition: Previous restoration includes relining of canvas. Frame is vintage gilt molded and wood frame and shows previous repair of molding losses. Image size: 20"H x 24"W. Auctions records for the artist exceed $6,000. Willis Seaver Adams was known for his landscapes of the Connecticut River Valley. A relative recluse for much of his artistic life, his loneliness can be seen in much of his works. Oil miniatures were the focus for almost all of his later works. He is credited with over 425 oils, watercolors, and drawings. Willis Seaver was born in 1844 on a farm in Suffield, near the Connecticut River. He intermittently attended the Suffield Academy, and always wanted to be a painter. A wealthy doctor became his patron, and financed his studies in 1868 at the Royal Academy in Antwerp. When the doctor passed away, Adams returned home and struggled to make a living painting. After working for a photographer for three years, he opened his own studio. Adams helped organize Cleveland's first watercolor exhibit in 1876. Soon thereafter, he completed a portrait of Rutherford B. Hayes, then governor of Ohio, prior to his becoming President of the United States. This portrait enhanced Adams notoriety. In 1878, Adams traveled to Italy where he opened a studio in Venice, and became friendly with neighbor James Whistler. Prior to returning to Springfield, Adams lived in Florence, Italy for three years. He returned to became an instructor for the Springfield Art Association, and began to exhibit his works at the galleries of James D. Gill. His first one-man exhibit was held there in 1894. Other successful exhibitions took place in Chicago, New York, and Boston. Although his works garnered respectable prices and reflected his success, Adams felt he was due more recognition. In 1906, he moved to Greenfield, Massachusetts and converted a barn into a studio. There, he fell into relative obscurity, accompanied mainly by his dog, Collie. In 1921, Adams passed away. Examples of Willis Adams works can be seen at the Kent Memorial Library, the Wadsworth Atheneum, and the Suffield Academy. Several Suffield residents are thought to own Adams paintings.

Mi-Mi, Portrait of a Yorkie
By Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait
Located in Santa Cruz, CA
Signed lower right, "A.F.Tait", inscribed "N.Y." and dated 1883. Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait first studied at London's Royal Academy before emigrating to New York in 1850. Influenced by the work of Edwin Landseer and by the style of the Pre-Raphaelites, Tait established himself as a realistic painter of animals shown in their natural surroundings. In his summer studio in the Adirondack Mountains, he concentrated on painting animal and sporting scenes, often with humorous or anecdotal content. These genre paintings appealed to a wide audience and, from 1852, Currier & Ives published a successful series of lithographs of the artist's work. By the end of his life, Tait was celebrated as America's pre-eminent animal painter. His works are held in the permanent collections of the nation's most prominent museums, including New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art and the National Gallery in Washington, DC. We are pleased to offer this elegant interior scene showing an impeccably-groomed Yorkie seated patiently on a red velvet-upholstered side-chair. The artist has included a wealth of period detail, including the fashionable kid-gloves and malacca cane, as well as the acutely-observed rendering of late-Victorian furnishings...
