About the Item
A beautiful pastel portrait by American female modern artist Franc Root McCreery
Franc Root McCreery
(1888-1957)
Born: Dodge City, Kansas, US
Franc Root McCreery, who was born in Salamanca, New York in 1908, was a painter and illustrator who specialized in portraits. She was an instructor at the Buffalo School of Fine Arts (Albright Art School) and at the University of Buffalo in 1921. Her role as a costume designer for Buffalo Players, Inc. may account for her ability to render textures of clothing, accessories, carpets, and other objects. McCreery also illustrated three children’s books by author Jane Abbott. She had studied at the Students School of Art in Denver, Colorado, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Buffalo School of Fine Arts and was a pupil of John H. Vanderpoel, Henry Read, and Louis Wilson. She was a member of the Buffalo Society of Artists, League of American Penwomen, and Guild of Allied Artists.

- L V Guirand de Scevola (1871-1950) Portrait of a young woman, 1928, oval pastelBy Lucien-Victor Guirand de ScévolaLocated in Paris, FRLucien-Victor Guirand de Scevola (1871-1950) Portrait of a young woman Pastel on paper 38 x 28 cm (oval) Framed under glass in a vintage framing : 45 x 35 cm A label on the back "1928 Portrait de femme Etude au pastel de Guirand de Scévola" (see photographs please) This pastel study is of course not signed, as the label on the back of the frame gives its attribution to Guirand de Scévola and, equally interestingly, the date 1928, but in fact the artist's style and execution are immediately recognisable without the need for a signature. This type of woman with a bun is typical of the models the artist loved. Her mysterious air recalls his Symbolist period, and pastel is hisr preferred medium because it lends itself to all the characteristics typical of his art. Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scévola ( 1871 – 1950) was a French painter. He was student of Fernand Cormon and Pierre Dupuis...Category
