"Joy and Grief, " Important Art Deco Paintings by Sager, 1952
About the Item
Painted by Adeline Sager in gorgeous shades of plum, reddish pink and charcoal, this pair of watercolor-and-ink paintings won the Grumbacher Award of Merit in the Premiere Florida International Art Exhibition at Florida Southern College in 1952, just as the College was completing the construction of a widely-renowned set of buildings by Frank Lloyd Wright. Clearly inspired by the Four Seasons sculptures of Wheeler Williams, Sager gives them a color-infused glow, as if the sculptures were bathed in light at one of the world's fairs of the 1930s and 1940s. The paintings are framed together, and retain their original exhibition label.
