Lorain Lindsay Oil on Canvas of San Francisco, Signed. Painted by famed American Impressionists Loraine Lindsay, this print depicts a San Francisco city street with the cable cars and people. I love how she captures the hustle and bustle of San Francisco. A little history about the artist, according to a San Francisco Art Gallery. Lorain Lindsay is a California-based painter born in 1923, widely recognized for her impressionistic oil on canvas paintings of San Francisco street scenes, cable cars, and pedestrians. Her artwork often features a vibrant, historical glimpse of the city and was heavily associated with the famous Cory Galleries in San Francisco. Lindsay’s paintings continue to circulate on the secondary art and resale market. The details of her work, pricing history, and auctions can be explored through a few specific channels. Size of Painting: 8″x10″ painting. Size with Frame: 13″X14″. Please view all pictures and ask any questions. Feel free to make me an offer!

Very Rare pass allowing passage to the city after the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake and fire. These passes were to be presented to police or military to allow passage within the city which was closed to prevent looting. If you can find one of these most are signed by military or police Personnel. This rare one is signed by the mayor of the city. It is included with the glass case. This is a great piece of California History.

His Bio is listed below. Thank you for stopping by. See a list of available inventory for Dorothy Louise Bowman. Dorothy Louise Bowman, painter and printmaker, was born in Hollywood, California on 20 January 1927. She studied at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles under Rico LeBrun and Jean Charlot. She furthered her studies at the Jepson Art Institute and the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles, the San Francisco Art Institute, and at Webster College in St Louis. Dorothy met fellow artist Howard Bradford, also a painter and printmaker, while studying at Chouinard. They married and eventually settled in Big Sur, California where she painted with her friend and neighbor, the author, Henry Miller. Bowman was a member of the Western Serigraphic Society and she received numerous awards for her serigraphs. Her work was shown at the Brooklyn Museum’s National Print Show between 1954 and 1962, and the Library of Congress National Print Shows and the Museum of Fine Arts Boston shows between the years 1954 and 1971. She was selected for Fifty American Printmakers, an exhibition that was circulated by American Federation of Arts to Japan and Moscow. Bowman also received commissions from the International Graphic Arts Society. Former Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts Director, E. Gunter Troche, wrote of her work. Dorothy Bowman specializes in serigraphs with a Californian flavor. She has been able to give to this technique an intricacy of design and a luminescence of color seldom reached by others. The recent cityscapes of Dorothy Bowman are aglow with excitement in their moody yet stimulating contrasts. Bowman’s work is represented in the collections of the Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts, San Francisco; the Museum of Fine Arts Boston; the Brooklyn Museum, New York; the Library of Congress, Washington, D. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D. And the New York Public Library.

A vintage perhaps 1950’s or 1960’s watercolor painting of Mission Dolores, in San Francisco, signed illegibly at lower right. The work, 9 by 12″ (15″ by 18 in a quality Jerry Solomon distressed-style frame) is beautifully executed by a trained artist. The name “Helmuth Wagner” has been suggested but perhaps we are mis-reading the signature. There are minor paper digs at top above the roof and at lower left, showing as lighter areas.
