Beth Dacey
Beth Dacey, "Back to Back in Amber Sky", 30x40 Beach Women Oil Painting

About the Item

This beach painting, "Back to Back in Amber Sky", is a 30x40 oil painting on canvas by artist Beth Dacey featuring two woman sitting together on the sand of the beach. One woman has a white bathing suit and the other has a blue bathing suit. The artist works off of reference photos from the 1950s and 1960s, and will crop out facial features so the viewer can relate to the piece with their own personal memories and family. These nostalgic pieces bring us back to a time of carefree joy. About the artist: Beth Dacey has studied painting at the museum schools at the DeCordova, in Lincoln, MA and at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. She has a BA and MA from Boston College and, for a number of years, taught writing and literature there. She is a member of the SOWA Artists Guild and the Copley Society of Art. Beth now lives in Newbury and is grateful to be able to paint in her new studio there, overlooking the Great Marsh. She still has her studio in the South End.

  • A Chinese Company playing Droughts
    Located in Amsterdam, NL
    ERWIN BINDEWALD (1897-1950) Two men playing draughts, a girl with the red book standing behind them Signed and dated E. Bindewald d.j., 27 Oil on canvas, 140.5 x 90.5 cm In black and gilt gesso frame. Note: Bindewald was born in Charlottenburg. He moved to Berlin in 1914 where he studied till 1924 at the Berliner Kunst Akademie. Bindewald travelled in Europe, but mainly stayed in Germany and certainly never was in China. This painting was made in Europe, presumably in the China Town of Berlin. Bindewald received several commisions in Germany from factory owners who wanted their factories painted inside, usually with workers, as well as outside. In the present painting the sitter on the right seems to be a man with a Manchurian background, wearing the brown coat reserved for the highest aristocracy in China. In China the black sleeve-ends completely cover the hands, indicating that the high aristocracy does not have to do any manuel labour. This man clearly is not a factory worker but he possibly is the (co)- owner of the factory in the background and as such might need his hands to do at least some writing. The man on the left in the modern Western suit...
