Pauline Chamberlain - Six Large Framed Architectural Drawings - Signed Pen, ink

About the Item

Pauline Chamberlain - A Set of Six Large Architectural Drawings circa 1915 in Pen and Ink that are highly decorative. These are all signed and framed. The frames are solid and generally good condition with mounts that have 'washlines' which are decorative lines, typically drawn in watercolor, ink, or other mediums, that can be added to the mount board to enhance the artwork and create a more refined presentation. . The six drawings are Tent and Base, Greek Doric, Erechtheum, Corinthian, Tuscan Order and Roman Ionic Pauline Chamberlain is an interesting person born in California in 1894 and died there 1957. Her relatives from both sides came to the United States from Europe in the 1700's and her maternal grandparents were among those who made the sometimes harrowing journey from Ohio to California in about 1860 as members of the 'wagon train'. Pauline went to the University of California, Berkely in 1912 studying Architecture, where she became one of the earliest women to graduate with a Architectural Degree from the University where these drawings were completed in c1915. These have always remained in the same family.
