"Watercolor Sailboats Approaching The Seychelles Round Group Of Islands By Mrs Barker"
Watercolor executed around 1880-1900 depicting sailboats approaching the Seychelles group of round islands by Mrs Barker *
this watercolor was purchased around 1980 in London, the framer made a window in order to display the title that I managed to partially decipher: Islands round the Seychelles group from a Strech by Mrs Barker.
On the back is the name of this framer with the mention Mrs. Barker.
dimensions of the watercolors at sight: 24.3cm x 15.6cm
* Mme ME Barker (19th century) In recent years, watercolors and a few rare paintings, monogrammed MEB, have appeared in American auction houses. Research suggests that the artist is ME Barker, a painter from the Washington, DC area who exhibited his work at the National Academy of Design in New York from 1862-1881.
Naylor Archives of the National Academy of Design list a number of works by this artist during this period. Additionally, Who Was Who in American Art, a three-volume set edited by Peter Hastings Falk, records American artists from 1564 to 1975, and lists a brief biographical note on an ME Barker, also known as (Mrs.) ME Barker, the use of "Mrs." is a term often used in the 19th century to refer to an unmarried girl. Peter Hastings Falk also suggests that MEB could be a daughter of the English watercolorist Thomas Barker of Bath, England, who died in New York in 1847.
