Jennifer C. Krieger, Owner of Hawthorne Fine Art (www.hawthornefineart.com)  in Manhattan and recognized scholar in American art will be exhibiting select works from Hawthorne’s inventory of 19th and Early 20th Century paintings at the Palm Beach Jewelry, Art, and Antique Show in West Palm Beach, Florida February 12-16. Hawthorne will be located in Booth 306 at the Palm Beach County Convention Center.

The numerous works Ms. Krieger has chosen to showcase in Palm Beach include Thomas Moran’s Summer Squall, a soft and sweeping view of eastern Long Island’s grassy meadows. Summer Squall has been held privately for over 20 years and is considered one of Moran’s strongest examples of eastern Long Island landscape. The widely celebrated Walter Launt Palmer will be represented by Hoar Frost, a deep exploration of the artist’s subtle use of color in his snowy winter landscapes. Ms. Krieger will also be showing one of the earliest documented American landscapes, Joshua Shaw’s Seven Hills: An American Landscape. The artist’s work is the foundation of America’s love affair with the landscape, even predating Thomas Cole, widely considered the founder of the Hudson River School.  In addition, Krieger will have a number of paintings from her current exhibition The Light Lies Softly: The Impressionist Art of Clark Greenwood Voorhees.  Many of these works have been held closely by the Voorhees family and out of public view for over 30 years.

Specializing in 19th and early 20th Century American paintings, Hawthorne Fine Art offers a selective inventory of Hudson River School, American Impressionist, Tonalist, still-life and genre paintings. Chosen for their quality, beauty, and rarity, all works are curated with meticulous scholarship. With emphasis on connoisseurship and research, Hawthorne’s staff provides each client with insight into a work’s value and its place in the current art market as well as the broader scope of art history. Well capitalized, Hawthorne Fine Art owns the vast majority of works offered. The gallery procures most of its paintings from private collections which have housed such works for decades, constantly bringing fresh inventory into the marketplace. Located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, Hawthorne offers an elegant environment to view its museum quality works.

Hawthorne Fine Art  is located at 74 East 79th Street between Park and Madison Avenues in New York. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 10am-6pm, and by appointment.  For more information about Hawthorne Fine Art call (212) 731-0550 or visit www.hawthornefineart.com.
