27: DORIS ROSENTHAL (1889-1971) EXHIBITED OIL ON CANVAS

Doris Rosenthal
Untitled (At The Blackboard) (Circa 1930s.)
The genre scene of children at a blackboard in Mexico where Doris Rosenthal spent much of her time painting is signed lower right in black pigment and displayed in an outstanding period frame.

The right stretcher verso is stamped 'EXH P.A.F.A 1936' in black ink. According to Who's Who in American Art, Ms. Rosenthal exhibited her work at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art frequently throughout the 1930s and 1940s.

The palette of this painting is brighter than many of the artist's works and reminiscent of Mexican Saltillo serapes of the period.

Doris Rosenthal's biography is replete with impressive credentials in study and accolades, including the successful exhibition of paintings throughout the entirety of her long career.
