Frank Milton Armington Art

Canadian, 1876-1941

Frank Milton Armington was a Canadian-born and raised artist who lived most of his adult life in France. He was born in Fordwich, Ontario, on July 28, 1876. Armington studied art in Ontario from 1892–99. He also met his future wife, Caroline Wilkinson, during this time. In 1899, Armington made his first visit to Paris. While in Paris, he married Caroline Wilkinson and continued to study art, this time at the Académie Julian. Armington and his wife moved back to Canada in 1900, where he became a founding member and vice president of the Manitoba Society of Artists. Armington returned to Paris and lived there from 1905–39. Toward the end of his life, he and his wife moved to New York City. Caroline died soon after the move, and Armington remarried in 1940. Armington died in New York City in 1941. Throughout his career, Armington worked in a number of mediums, including etching 221 prints and a number of lithographs.

Luigi Kasimir was born in 1881 at Pettau, today Ptuj, Slovenia, then a part of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. He inherited his talent from his ancestors; his grandfather was a painter and a poet, and his father an officer in the Habsburg army, who later became a professional painter. Kasimir attended the Vienna Academy of Art where he studied under Wilhelm Unger, who introduced him to the technique of the coloured etching, and also to his future wife, the artist Tanna Hoernes.[1] He died in 1962 in Grinzing, a suburb of Vienna.Kasimir was among the first to develop the technique of the coloured etching. Before this, prints were usually hand-coloured with the colour being applied in a casual, haphazard manner. Kasimir would first create a sketch usually in pastel, he then transferred the design on as many as four to six plates, printing one after the other and applying the colour on the plate, all done by hand. Kasimir is mainly famous for his etchings, but he also produced some oil painting, as well as some pastels. One of his favourite genres was the landscape, or veduta. He demonstrated a predisposition street scenes, and tourist landmarks. He depicted places from all over Europe, mainly Italy, Austria, and Germany. He also travelled to the United States to do a series of etchings of famous sights ranging from urban landmarks such as New York City skyscrapers, to natural wonders like Yosemite Valley.
