Raymer Society Consignment Art Auction
Welch, Mary - tree and hills, oil on board
Welch, Mary (1875-1967) – tree and hills, oil on board, measures 9" x 12" and is in good condition. Signed M. Welch in the lower right.Mary Welch, born 10 years after the end of the Civil War, was a woman ahead of her time. She signed her paintings M. Welch, hoping that potential buyers wouldn’t discover she was a woman. More often than not, when they learned her sex, art dealers lost interest. The Hutchinson, KS artist never married, never had children. But when she died in 1967, she left an impressive body of paintings, many of them familiar Kansas landscapes. While the Raymer Society makes every effort to offer authentic, original artwork it is ultimately the bidders responsible for assessing and determining the work of art’s authenticity, condition and quality before purchasing.
