        Constance Richardson (1905 - 2002)

        Est: $1,000 - $2,000

        Constance Richardson (Michigan, Indiana, 1905 - 2002) Oil on canvas coastal landscape. Depicting waves crashing along a rocky shore. Signed lower right. Sight Size: 23.5 x 29.5 in. Richardson was a prize-winning artist who exhibited widely in galleries and museums including the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, M.H. De Young Memorial Museum, San Francisco, New York City's Macbeth Gallery, the Kennedy Galleries, New York City and Detroit Institute of Arts. Her painting Streetlight, based on an Indianapolis summer night street scene in front of her parent's home on Central Avenue, brought her the most lasting attention during her career. Ironically it was one of her earliest paintings. Completed in 1930, while she was a student at the Pennsylvania Academy, it became the cover illustration of the opening exhibition catalogue for the National Museum of Women in the Arts in 1987.
