Communist Rally, Cleveland Public Square - Depression Era American Oil Painting

By Clyde Singer

Located in Marco Island, FL

Painted during America's Great Depression (1929-1939), when Americans were looking for change and new ideas to navigate societal struggles. The young boy is looking away and uninterested in the passionate speaker. Also in the foreground is the police officer, who is there to keep the peace. This image was included in the exhibition and book titled Clyde Singer's America, Fig. 80. Oil Painting on board with conservation backing. Presented in a custom frame. The following is excerpted from an article by Elizabeth McClelland, published in "Little Bits of History, Clyde Singer, American Scene Painter" in TIMELINE, December 1966, a publication of the Ohio Historical Society. Born in Malvern, Ohio, forty miles south of Akron, Clyde Singer became known for his regionalist paintings in oil and watercolor of people at carnivals, standing in bars, on windy street corners, celebrating holidays, or looking at pictures in a gallery. Many of his works are small, ones he calls his "bread and butter...
