| William Thomas Turman |
October in Vigo County |
 |
Recently cleaned; recent frame.
This painting was featured in our weekly newsletter on 1/6/2023.
"William Turman was a native of tiny Graysville, IN and received a bachelors degree from Union Christian College in equally tiny Merom, IN (both south of Terre Haute near the Illinois border). He went on to study at the Chicago Art Institute and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (under Daniel Garber). He joined the art faculty at Indiana State Teachers College (now Indiana State University) in 1894 ultimately becoming faculty chair by the time he departed in 1934.
He was then director of Swope Gallery (now Swope Art Museum) from 1941 through 1957. He spent his remaining few years in California with his daughter.
Despite a long life and his entire adult existence involving painting, his works are somewhat rare. Swope has several pieces but I've seen relatively few on the market over our years as a gallery. Today's work, October in Vigo County (our title) features the gently rolling hills outside Terre Haute in late October. Turman apparently enjoyed painting these long vistas in western Indiana -- we've seen this look out of him a few times. Nicely executed, signed and dated (down to the day -- 10/29/34) and recently conserved. A nice example." |

| Paul Turner Sargent |
Brown County October Landscape |
 |
Recently cleaned; recent frame.
This painting was featured in our 1/13/2023 Weekly Newsletter.
"Paul Turner Sargent was born on the Sargent family farm in tiny Hutton Township, IL (a few miles SE of Charleston, IL). He studied art at the Chicago Art Institute, completing that work in 1912, then returned to the family farm to paint full-time. He was extremely prolific, vowing to create a new piece every day, which he did for 30 years. Outside of the farm and surrounds, he often traveled to Brown County for subject matter, making his first trip in 1920. Sargent was a bachelor and remained on the family farm his entire life.
Today's painting captures his output well. "Brown County October Landscape" (our title) is a very representative, impressionistic Brown County vista. This piece is unsigned which is not atypical of Sargent. Several pieces were sold out of the estate, many of them unsigned." |
