2015.7.1, Everett Spruce, Mulberry River, Arkansas


GENERAL DESCRIPTION  

NOTES
This note was started by Erin Pinon but found in trash after she left. I moved it to my notes to see if I can pick up where she left off. Aug 2016.

No audio or video in Piction.

c. 1927-1930 (writing in TMS as "between")

Acquisition Justification Report: 
The watercolor under considerations—Mulberry River, Arkansas—depicts a river in the Ozark Mountains. Its subject matter and style, particularly the simple forms and subdued color palette, indicate that it was produced between 1927 and 1930 while Spruce was a student at the Dallas Art Institute. While the Dallas Museum of Art permanent collection currently includes eighteen Spruce works—ten oil paintings, one tempera painting, and seven prints—it does not include a watercolor painting. Further, the Dallas Museum of Art does not hold any works from the early stage of Spruce's careen of which Mulberry River, Arkansas is an example. As a result, Everett Spruce's Mulberry River, Arkansas is an ideal addition to the Dallas Museum of Art's renowned collection of Texas Art, including works by Everett Spruce and other members of the Dallas Nine.
