SOLD — This painting was featured in our weekly email on 3/17/17 along with the following gallery comments: Hallie Pace Prow hails from Salem, Indiana and lived most of her adult life in Bloomington. She was married to an older doctor and after he passed away, she took up painting in ernest to support herself. She received much early encouragement from T.C. Steele, whom she might have met in the last year's of Steele's life when he was artist in residence at IU. Today's painting, A Brown County Park View (her title) was created in around 1939 and is a nice, visceral example of Prow's work. We purchased this piece from a descendent a few years ago. It has gone through conservation and is housed in a antique reproduction frame and ready to hang. As noted above, this painting will appear in our 4/2/17 Curated Sale of Historic Indiana Art auction.
