Signed and inscribed in pencil along the lower edge
Blanche McVeigh (American, 1895-1970) Floral Still Life Monotype in colors on paper 7 x 4-3/4 inches (17.8 x 12.1 cm) (image) Signed and inscribed in pencil along the lower edge Fort Worth artist Blanche McVeigh is a fabled and mysterious historical figure. Relatively little is known about this accomplished printmaker. She was a co-founder of the Fort Worth School of Fine Arts in 1936 and an artist who had a profound influence on the Fort Worth Circle. Her figure drawing and, especially, printmaking classes were partly responsible for the high quality and rich tradition of the prints produced in Fort Worth during the 1930s, 1940s, and beyond. We do know that during the 1920s she studied at the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts where her instructor, Daniel Gardner, remarked that McVeigh was "born to the etching needle." She also studied the making of aquatints with famed Prairie Printmaker Doel Reed in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Her most common subjects ranged from exquisite tree forms to portraits to Texas landmarks.

Framed under glass. Minor toning. Faint scuff in the lower left quadrant, notable in raking light under close inspection. Framed Dimensions 13 X 10.5 Inches
