Information About Barridoff

Barridoff Auctions Bidding Experience

Barridoff Auctions conducts live auctions in which a buyer can bid in person, over the telephone, by absentee registration or online through the Barridoff App or on several third-party marketplace websites. Our auctions are simulcast so buyers can bid remotely for convenience or safety reasons, but please be advised online bidding, including on the Barridoff App, is subject to a surcharge. Also, as the auction happens in real time, remote bidders need to pay attention to the progress of the auction.

FINE ART TERMS & CONDITIONS

CONDITIONS OF AUCTION SALE

The following Conditions of Sale, including the appended notes and other information, whether printed or online, as they may be amended by any posted notices or oral announcements before or during the auction sale constitute the entire agreement between Barridoff Auctions, representing its consignors, and Bidder relative to the item being sold and the conduct of the sale. Unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “Barridoff Auctions” and “auctioneer” are interchangeable, “consignor” and “seller” are interchangeable, and “buyer” means the winning bidder. By registering for or participating in the auction sale, all bidders agree to the terms hereof.

1.THE SALE. The contract for sale for any item purchased at auction is between the consignor (seller) and the winning bidder. Barridoff Auctions acts as the consignor’s agent only, unless Barridoff Auctions is selling the item as principal. The sale of every lot of one or multiple items constitutes a separate sale under Maine law and the Uniform Commercial Code. Bidding on a lot starts when the lot is opened for bidding by the auctioneer. Items are sold with reserve and starting bids may start below the reserve price. The auctioneer may reject any bid below the reserve. The auctioneer may bid on behalf of the consignor or of Barridoff Auctions. If an item does not reach its reserve price, the auctioneer may pass the item. Barridoff Auctions may withdraw any item at any time before its actual sale. Bids must be consistent with the standard bidding increments and may be varied only upon permission from the auctioneer. A bid received between two increments may be rejected or reduced to the next lowest increment. Bidder may not make consecutive bids if there is an opposing bidder and there must be at least one increment/other bidder separating Bidder’s bids in that instance, except by permission of the auctioneer. The auction is a live sale and not a timed sale, and absentee and pre-auction bids submitted prior to the sale are not considered submitted until made by the clerk administering the bid and recognized by the auctioneer. The auctioneer will recognize bids as they are made and does not give preference to either bids made by bidders in the room or remote bids. A clerk administering a remote bid is deemed a bidder present in the room for that bid and will be recognized by the auctioneer equally to all other bidders. The buyer is the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer upon the fall of the hammer, which indicates the completion of the sale. In the event of a tie bid, the first bid recognized by the auctioneer has precedence. In the event of a bid received as the hammer is falling, it is in the auctioneer’s discretion whether to accept the bid or declare the sale complete. Barridoff Auctions has authority to decide any disputes over the auction process in Barridoff Auctions’ sole discretion, whose decision is final and binding. Bidder understands that any dispute regarding a purchased lot is between the consignor and the buyer unless the dispute concerns the conduct of the sale or other issue within the sole responsibility and control of Barridoff Auctions. The actual results of the sale are not final until confirmed as such by Barridoff Auctions subsequent to the auction.

2. REMOTE BIDDING As a convenience to clients who cannot attend a sale in person, absentee bidding, telephone bidding and online bidding options are available, but Barridoff Auctions is not responsible for technical difficulties, mistakes or other issue that may occur with those bidding methods. Barridoff Auctions strongly suggests that bidders be present in the room. Remote methods and absentee or other pre-auction bids do not take precedence over bidding in the room. The clerk administering a remote bid is deemed a bidder in the room and bids made by that clerk are subject to recognition by the auctioneer as any other bidder. The auctioneer will not advance an increment for an absentee or pre-auction bid that is currently holding the increment one below the maximum amount authorized by that bidder. Barridoff Auctions strongly recommends remote bidders who wish to bid pre-auction or absentee complete the absentee registration form, not submit the bid through an online bidding platform, and indicate “+1,” which will protect the absentee bidder if another bidder lands on the absentee bidder’s maximum amount by allowing the clerk to bid one increment higher than the maximum.

Each remote bidding platform/method will order tie bids received within that platform/ method giving the first received bid precedence. This bid will be the bid presented to the auctioneer by the clerk for that platform/method. An absentee or pre-auction bid submitted that is less than half of the low estimate of an item will be rejected by Barridoff Auctions. Absentee and telephone bidding registration forms may be found on the Barridoff Auctions website. Any pre-auction, absentee or telephone safety bid given that is not consistent with

the published bidding increments may be rejected or rounded down to the next lowest increment. Online bidding may be available on the Barridoff website and one or more online auctioneering websites as announced by Barridoff Auctions, and absentee or pre-auction bids left on those platforms do not take precedence over other bids. Barridoff Auctions is not responsible for errors and omissions made in connection with absentee, telephone, Internet or other remote bidding methods. Mistakes made by Bidder are the responsibility of Bidder and may not be cause to rescind a sale. Online bidding may indicate a winning bid or other confirmation that is erroneous based upon what happens in the room (bid comes after fall of hammer, auctioneer recognizes another bid given simultaneously, mistake made by remote clerk, etc) and the final sale results are the ones confirmed as such by Barridoff Auctions under paragraph 1. Online bidders may have to wait to purchase and retrieve won lots until after confirmation of final sale by Barridoff Auctions.

3. MISTAKES BY BIDDER. Under Maine Law and the Uniform Commercial Code, the bidder with the highest bid recognized by the auctioneer upon the fall of the hammer becomes the owner of the item, even if the bid was made by mistake or otherwise unintentional. Barridoff Auctions takes no responsibility nor will rescind or refund a sale in which the winning bidder claims to have won unintentionally or by mistake. Attention to the item being bid on and the conduct of Bidder’s bidding is the sole responsibility of Bidder. A person who has not registered who bids on and wins an item at the auction sale is deemed to be a bidder and agrees and is subject to these terms and conditions.

4. INFORMATION PROVIDED BY BARRIDOFF AUCTIONS. Provenances are included in the catalog to the extent they are available. Estimates are included with each lot (See note on estimates in paragraph 11). Statements of condition may be provided. However, these provenances, estimates and statements of condition and any other information provided by Barridoff Auctions or its staff are merely the opinion of Barridoff Auctions and may not be taken as statements of fact to substitute research regarding and inspection of the item by Bidder, more fully described in paragraphs 5 and 6. However, Barridoff Auctions endeavors to provide the most accurate and complete information on an item and to answer to the fullest extent possible any reasonable question, subject to the disclaimers herein. An item may be described as an attribution or “attributed to,” “school of,” or “circle of” indicating that the authenticity of the item cannot be definitively determined (also see Disputes on Grounds of Authenticity in Notes and Other Information, below). Barridoff Auctions and the auctioneer may make corrections and provide additional information as available up to and during the time of sale.

5. DISCLAIMER FOR ERRORS AND OMISSIONS; Items sold AS IS; Bidder responsibility to inspect and perform due diligence. Barridoff Auctions is not responsible for errors or omissions contained in the catalog, provided by Barridoff Auctions or presented by the auctioneer or in any other information detailed in paragraph 4. Barridoff Auctions makes no representation or warranty with respect to and is not responsible for the description, quality, condition or authenticity of any items sold, and makes no warranty as to merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. All items are sold “AS IS.” Prospective bidders bear sole responsibility to inspect an item before bidding and perform other due diligence to determine the item’s authenticity, condition, size and whether or not the item has been repaired or restored. No representation or warranty is made as to copyright of any item or whether Bidder acquires any reproduction rights of the item.

6. OPPORTUNITY FOR INSPECTION BY BIDDER; No Obligation to Inspect or Test by Barridoff Auctions. Barridoff Auctions offers the opportunity for prospective bidders to examine an item and Barridoff Auctions assumes no obligation to Bidder for Barridoff Auctions to examine, investigate or carry out any tests, either in sufficient depth or at all, to establish the authenticity or accuracy or otherwise of any description or opinion of Barridoff Auctions, whether given orally, in writing, on its website or any published catalog or literature. Bidder should not assume that any such examination, investigation or test has occurred. Barridoff Auctions does not make or agree to make any representation of fact and undertakes no obligation or duty, whether in contract or in tort, with respect to the accuracy or completeness of any statement or representation made by Barridoff Auctions or on Barridoff Auctions’ behalf that is in any way descriptive of any item or as to the anticipated or likely selling price of any item. No statement or representation by Barridoff Auctions or on Barridoff Auctions’ behalf in any way descriptive of any item or any estimate is incorporated into these terms and conditions or agreement for sale with Bidder.

7. BUYER’S PREMIUM. Barridoff Auctions charges the winning bidder a premium to be added to the hammer price on each item purchased. This premium is equal to 22% of a hammer price up to $500,000, and 17% of a hammer price above $500,000. A surcharge above this premium may be assessed for online sales, including on the Barridoff website or the Barridoff app, the amount of which may vary depending on the specific online platform or app on which the bidding is being conducted, which will be noted in the terms for that specific platform. A 2% discount of the premium will be given for any item paid for and removed by the end of auction day.

8. COMPLETION OF SALE; Payment by Bidder. Upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the sale is complete and title to the item passes to the highest bidder, subject to the terms hereof, who is bound by the sale and assumes full risk and responsibility thereof. The buyer authorizes Barridoff Auctions to sign a sales record, which is conclusive as to the terms of the sale, on the winning bidder’s behalf. It is expected that the buyer has the funds available to pay for the item upon the completion of sale. Payment is due upon completion of the auction and, unless alternate payment arrangements have been made, Barridoff Auctions reserves the right to charge any credit card or other financial account of the buyer on file with Barridoff Auctions at that time or any time thereafter for any amounts owed. All items must be fully paid for, including any additional amounts owed Barridoff Auctions under paragraph10 or otherwise, and removed from the premises of the auction by the buyer at the buyer’s expense within 24 hours of the day of sale unless other specific arrangements have been made with Barridoff Auctions. Payment for each item purchased must be made before the item is removed. Only cash, certified check, wire transfer or verified credit card are acceptable as payment methods unless other suitable arrangements have been made with Barridoff Auctions at least five days before the auction. All sales are final and no refunds will be given with the limited exception of circumstances under paragraph 11. Buyer agrees that by registering to bid under these terms and conditions, buyer waives the right to charge back buyer’s credit card or otherwise reverse or stop any payment given, with any violation of this provision resulting in liquidated damages in the amount of double the chargeback or reversed or stopped payment owed Barridoff Auctions by buyer if Barridoff Auctions has to enforce this provision.

9. POST-SALE RESPONSIBILITIES OF BIDDER. Barridoff Auctions is not responsible for any loss by a buyer as a result of the damage, loss or theft of an item subsequent to the completion of the sale for that item and encourages the buyer to pay for and remove purchased items immediately after the sale. If an item won at auction is not paid for and removed from the premises within 5 business days after the sale, additional charges under paragraph 10 may apply. Shipping, packing, storage and any related expense of an item are the sole responsibility of the buyer of the item.

10. BIDDER COMPLIANCE WITH TERMS

AND CONDITIONS;

If Bidder does not comply with an applicable term or condition herein, Barridoff Auctions and the consignor have one or more of the following nonexclusive rights and remedies, in addition any other remedy available at law or in equity: a) to hold the winning bidder liable for the total purchase price plus interest of 1 1⁄2 % per month, compounded monthly; b) to cancel the sale and retain as liquidated damages all payments made by the winning bidder; c) to resell the item, in which case the winning bidder is liable for any deficiency, cost, including handling and storage charges, the expenses of both sales, premiums or commissions on both sales and all other charges and incidental damages; d) to charge 1% of the total purchase price per month, with a minimum charge of 5%, to handle any item not timely removed; e) to exclude the winning bidder and its agents or affiliates from all future auctions; f) to charge a reasonable storage fee; g) to set off any amounts Barridoff or consignor owes the winning bidder; h) to ship items owned by the winning bidder to the winning bidder at winning bidder’s expense; i) to charge winning bidder’s credit card on file with or available to Barridoff Auctions for any amounts owed Barridoff Auctions. The winning bidder is responsible to Barridoff Auctions for the winning bidder’s premium due Barridoff Auctions under paragraph 7 separate and apart from any other remedy listed in this paragraph. A winning bidder is deemed to have granted to Barridoff Auctions or its consignor as collateral for bidder’s obligations hereunder a security interest in any item of the winning bidder purchased at a Barridoff auction sale, and Barridoff Auctions and the consignor have all of the rights of a

secured party in Maine and the law of the location of the item. Barridoff Auctions has all of the rights of the consignor to pursue all rights and remedies hereunder, and Barridoff Auctions and its consignor are entitled to all of their costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, court and collection costs, in enforcing their rights and remedies hereunder. Bidder waives any and all rights it may now or in the future have under any Maine law governing unclaimed or abandoned property.

11. DISPUTES ON GROUNDS OF AUTHENTICITY. Disputes on the grounds of authenticity subsequent to sale must be made within 15 days of receipt of the item by the buyer and must be supported by the written testimony of at least one recognized expert of the specific artist involved, or two recognized experts of the general field or genre in which that artist belongs. Only if the disputed item is in the same condition as when sold will a rescission of the sale be considered. In the event Barridoff Auctions agrees to rescind the sale, the decision of which is at Barridoff Auctions’ sole discretion, an amount up to the purchase price, plus sales tax if appropriate, may be refunded to the buyer. Such rescission and refund is exclusive and in lieu of any other remedies which might otherwise be available as a matter of contract or law. In no event does Barridoff Auctions’ or its consignor’s responsibility under this paragraph exceed the purchase price of the item sold. Recission of sale or any refund under this paragraph does not apply to any item listed as “attribution,” “attributed to,” “school of,” “circle of” or any other term qualifying authenticity.

12. ESTIMATES. The high and low estimate given for an item are solely a guideline based upon Barridoff Auctions’ approximation as to the range within which an item may be sold for at auction. An estimate is not a statement of value or selling price of an item and Barridoff Auctions makes no guarantee, representation or agreement as to the value or selling price of an item other than Barridoff Auctions’ opinion of the item’s possible auction price.

13. SALES TAX. All purchases are subject to Maine sales tax (5.5%) or Massachusetts sales tax (6.25%) unless the buyer is located in another state and shipping is arranged by Barridoff Auctions or the buyer provides a sales tax exemption certificate issued by or acceptable to Maine Revenue Services and a valid, signed copy of which is presented to Barridoff Auctions. Maine sales tax is applicable to the full purchase price, which includes the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium and surcharges under paragraph 7. Purchases made from other states or jurisdictions may be subject to a sales or use tax for that state or jurisdiction.

14. USE OF IMAGES. The images and descriptions used in the catalog may not be reproduced in any manner without the written authorization of Barridoff Auctions.

15. APPLICABLE LAW; JURISDICTION OF DISPUTES. Title 11, Section 2-328 of the Uniform Commercial Code and Title 32, chapter 5-B of the Maine Revised Statutes apply to auction sales conducted by Barridoff Auctions. These terms and conditions of sale are governed by and shall be interpreted under Maine law, and any conflicts hereunder shall be decided in the state and federal courts located in Cumberland County, Maine, and all bidders submit themselves to the jurisdiction thereof. The regulating authority of this auction is the Board of Licensing of Auctioneers, 35 State House Station, Augusta ME 04333-0035.

16. MAINTAIN CURRENT CONTACT INFORMATION AND TIMELY RESPOND TO BARRIDOFF COMMUNICATIONS. Bidder must provide and maintain current contact information that allows Barridoff Auctions to communicate with Bidder and timely respond to Barridoff Auctions inquiries, requests and other communications as required by Barridoff Auctions.

17. FORCE MAJEURE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Barridoff Auctions is not liable for any delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of God, acts of war or terrorism, shortage of supply, breakdowns or malfunctions, interruptions or malfunction of computer facilities, or loss of data due to power failures or mechanical difficulties with information storage or retrieval systems, labor difficulties or civil unrest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of such an occurrence, each party agrees to make a good faith effort to perform its obligations hereunder.

18. APPLICATION OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Unless agreed otherwise in writing between Barridoff Auctions and Bidder, these terms and conditions, whenever applicable, apply to all private sales, post auction sales and any other transaction between

the parties not conducted at the auction sale that occur while these terms and conditions are posted by Barridoff Auctions.

DESCRIPTIONS All descriptions and notes of signatures, titles, dates, labels, inscriptions and other notable features of an item are assumed to be of the front (recto) unless otherwise noted. If a notable feature is described to be on “verso,” that indicates it is on the back or reverse of the item. If a feature is described to be on the stretcher, it is on verso unless otherwise indicated. Signatures, initials, dates and titles, etc. may be noted but not quoted in the description unless there is an unusual or noteworthy characteristic of the signature, initial, date or title, etc. If an item description does not note a signature or that the item is signed, it should be assumed that the item is not signed. If there is an exhibition label but no exhibition listed, that means the label does not identify the exhibition. All paintings on canvas or other fabric are assumed to be stretched unless specifically noted “unstretched.” For items described as “under glass,” the type of glass is unspecified unless otherwise noted. A collateral item mentioned such as a certificate of authenticity, letter referencing or photograph showing the listed item, book or catalog depicting or referencing the listed item, etc., are not part of the description of the item for purposes of sale of that item unless specifically noted.

SHIPPING Shipping arrangements and all packing and shipping charges are the responsibility of the buyer. Barridoff Auctions assumes no responsibility of any kind for providing this service. For your convenience, our in-house partner Eastern Art Services would be happy to provide a quote to pack and ship your items purchased at the auction.

Eastern Art Services provides an art shuttle within a 300 miles radius of the auction facility (to New York City). Please inquire if you wish to use the shuttle services.

If you are not using our in-house partner, once you have made arrangements with the shipping service of your choice, please send an email to fineart@barridoff.com releasing your purchase to be shipped to that shipping service and include the lot number and any additional pertinent details. After we receive your release, we will coordinate the details of pick-up with your designated shipper. You will receive an email confirmation when your item(s) have been retrieved.

FRAMES If a frame is thought to be original to the work of art or of some other particular interest based upon its history, value or beauty, it may be illustrated; but the illustration is in no way to be considered a guarantee of same unless information about the frame is included in the catalog description.

OLD MASTERS Unless otherwise noted, all works by Old Masters, including school, manner and other related information including dates are now by policy offered as attributions because, in the opinion of Barridoff Auctions, there has been too little or no known opportunity for a consensus, extensive research or singular expertise or because such opportunities often result in significant changes and varied opinions. However, all attributions are, in the opinion of Barridoff Auctions, appropriate as cataloged.

CONDITION REPORTS Condition reports may be in the catalog and are available upon request. However, as more fully described in paragraph 4, a condition report is in no way a guarantee, nor should it be considered an expert opinion. All lots should be examined by potential bidders. Because few lots are examined by Barridoff Auctions out of their frames, potential bidders should assume that condition reports only include areas that are clearly visible unless otherwise stated. Barridoff will remove a work from its frame if requested and if it does not appear to threaten to damage the piece or otherwise present an impracticality or other reason.

SIZE Unless otherwise noted, the size of each item is measured height by width in inches and does not include the frame. Sizes are approximate. The term “actual” means the actual size of the item without any frame or other appendage, “framed” means the size of the item including

the frame and “sight” means the visible portion of the item when the actual size is covered or obscured and unable to be determined. All prints (etchings, lithographs, silkscreens, etc.), to the best of Barridoff Auctions’ knowledge, have full margins unless otherwise noted. The terms regarding information in paragraph 4 apply to information regarding sizes provided by Barridoff Auctions.

LIVE PHONE BIDDING AND ONLINE BIDDING

Phone bid registrations are allowed on a limited first-come, first-served basis. Phone bidders must make arrangements in advance. Barridoff Auctions provides phone bidding as a service for bidders who cannot attend the auction, but phones are not the perfect medium for bidding at an auction under any circumstances and cell phones, while useful, can be particularly difficult. Bidders should be mindful of these limitations if choosing to bid by phone, and it is suggested that phone bidders leave a “safety” bid, or emergency absentee bid, in the event the telephone call is disrupted, dropped or otherwise unable to be connected through to the completion of bidding for that lot. Bidding may also be available online in real time at barridoff.com, bidsquare.com, invaluable.com and liveauctioneers.com. Bidders are advised to familiarize themselves with the rules and procedures provided for whatever platform Bidder is using prior to bidding. Online bidding platforms may charge a surcharge over and above the buyer’s premium for an item. Barridoff Auctions is not responsible for any difficulties, technical or otherwise, that may be experienced through bidding other than in person. Mistakes made by Bidder, including mistakenly bidding on and winning an item not intended by Bidder, is Bidder’s sole responsibility and Barridoff Auctions will not refund or rescind a sale that Bidder claimed was made by mistake or unintentional.

ADDITIONS AND ERRATA. Additions consigned too late to be included in the bound copy of the catalog may be found on a continually updated separate sheet and on the online catalog to the extent possible. All additions will be included on the final sheet available at the auction and be placed sequentially at the end of the sale. Online catalogs are updated daily. Lot numbers correspond with the printed catalog and additions sheets. Errata are also published in the updated sheet listing any corrections of inaccuracies or additional information concerning the original catalog. Online updates may happen without notice by Barridoff Auctions, so Bidder should refer to the most current posted auction information to remained accurately informed. The auctioneer may announce errors, omissions or changes at the commencement of or during the auction sale.

PROVENANCE Provenance is listed insofar as it is known or is allowed to be published by the consignor, who is ultimately responsible for the accuracy of any provenance information given. The conditions regarding information in paragraph 4 apply to any provenance information provided by Barridoff Auctions.

TITLES Titles are provided for most items in the sale. A title bounded by quotation marks indicates that it is the official title of the item. A title not bounded by quotation marks is an unofficial title or a brief description of an untitled item used to identify the item.

OFFERS FOR PREVIOUS SALES Barridoff Auctions accepts as payment the credit cards Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express. Bidder acknowledges that all sales are final and for the privilege of paying by credit card, Bidder waives any right to perform a chargeback or otherwise stop or reverse payment for an item for which Bidder was acknowledged as the winner by the auctioneer. For more information, see paragraph 8, above.

MAJOR CREDIT CARDS ACCEPTED Barridoff Auctions accepts as payment the credit cards Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express. Bidder acknowledges that all sales are final and for the privilege of paying by credit card, Bidder waives any right to perform a chargeback or otherwise stop or reverse payment for an item for which Bidder was acknowledged as the winner by the auctioneer. For more information, see paragraph 8, above..

DISCOUNT FOR PAYING FOR/REMOVING PURCHASED ITEMS

Reuben Tam (1916-1991)

Reuben Tam was not only an incredibly talented and prolific artist, but also a respected educator and published poet. To some, painting and poetry may appear to be disparate disciplines, but to Tam they were both expressions of the same unique vision. This vision stemmed from his love for nature and his complete immersion in it, which permeated every aspect of his personal and professional life. Barridoff Auctions has been fortunate enough to promote and sell the artist’s work for nearly 4 decades. He remains one of the more undervalued artists in the market given the body of work he created, particularly while on Monhegan Island, Maine.

Born in Kapaa, Hawaii on the northernmost Hawaiian island of Kaua'i in 1916, Tam spent his formative years combing the beaches and coastlines of the Islands. He received a degree in education from the University of Hawaii in 1937 and briefly worked as a public-school teacher before attending graduate courses at the California School of Fine Arts. In 1941, Tam relocated to New York where he took courses in art history and philosophy at the New School for Social Research and Columbia University. It was in New York where Tam's artistic career began to take shape when in 1945 he became affiliated with the Downtown Gallery. He exhibited prolifically in national and regional shows, and his abstract landscape paintings won critical praise.

Tam's paintings were recognized for their unique style and expression. He often fused his passion for poetry and painting, creating evocative and striking works that captured the essence of the landscapes he painted. His

art was deeply influenced by coastal landscapes both in Maine and in his native Hawaii.

Tam's work gained recognition and in 1948 he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship. The following year, he exhibited in the National Academy's annual exhibition for the first time.

Throughout his painting career, Tam won numerous awards and held over thirty oneman shows. Tam was not just a painter, he was a respected educator as well. From 1946 to 1974, he was an instructor at the Brooklyn Museum of Art School, where he taught advanced studies in painting and served as chairman of the graduate painting department. He also taught at other institutions such as Oregon State University, Haystack and Queens College, CUNY. Tam's teaching style emphasized individuality and self-expression, which reflected his own artistic philosophy.

Beginning in 1948, Tam and his wife Geraldine spent nearly 30 summers at their home and studio on Monhegan Island, where he would befriend other well-known Monhegan artists of the time including William Kienbusch. Reuben Tam's paintings of the island's landscapes

and seascapes are particularly noteworthy. His Monhegan paintings are celebrated for their unique style that capture the island's rugged beauty and serene charm. As his work evolved in his later years, he moved closer and closer toward pure abstraction.

Despite his extensive body of work produced in Hawaii and Monhegan, Tam is not always given the recognition he deserves as one of the notable artists of his day. However, his contributions to American art and art education are significant. Tam's legacy as a painter, poet and educator endures, and his work continues to in -

spire and captivate viewers. His art is a testament to his creativity, his passion for painting and his appreciation for modernism and the beauty of nature.

His work is held in museum collections throughout the country, including the Addison Museum of American Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Farnsworth Museum, the Hirschhorn Museum, the Hawaii State Museum, the Honolulu Museum of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the National Academy of Design, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Whitney Museum of Art, the University of Michigan Art Museum and the Monhegan Museum among others.

Charles Dana Gibson (1867-1944)

Charles Dana Gibson was born into a prominent and wealthy New England family in Roxbury - a suburb of Boston, Massachusetts - in 1867. As a child he was initially drawn to art through observation of his father's artwork, often silhouettes of family members. By the age of eight, he began producing similar silhouettes and eventually selling them by the time he was twelve. Through family connections, Gibson became an apprentice at the age of fourteen to Augustus Saint-Gaudens, a prominent sculptor and founder of the Cornish Colony. After nearly a year in Saint-Gaudens' studio, Gibson realized his primary artistic interest lay in pen and ink drawing rather than sculpture. Recognizing his early artistic talent, his parents enrolled him in the Art Students League.

Due to unforeseen financial difficulties, Gibson was forced to leave school in 1885 and embarked on his career as an artist. After failing to find a job he landed a trial position at Life, a new magazine competing with well-established competitors such as Puck and Judge. Initially hired to draw editorial cartoons featuring political figures, Gibson's interests quickly shifted towards portraying high society figures and their idiosyncrasies, which had garnered popularity in some circles. His monthly salary at Life began at $33, but quickly increased to $185 by his third month due to his important contributions to the magazine. Gibson also consulted with Tid-Bits - later renamed Time Magazine - and illustrated articles for Scribner's Magazine, Century and Harper's Magazine.

Gibson's most recognizable contribution to American art is the creation of the "Gibson Girl," which he first drew in 1890. He featured the Gibson Girl in his first independent portfolio of drawings of beautiful women, wherein the same woman's face was repeated in different poses and garments. Gibson's wife, Irene Langhorne Gibson, and her sisters were undoubtedly modeled for many of the artist’s Gibson Girl works. But despite the often told myth to contrary, Gibson’s wife was likely not the original inspiration for the iconic figure as he did not meet Irene until 1892, two years after the first drawing. The popularity of the Gibson Girl grew so large that Robert Collier and his partner Condé Nast tried to sign Gibson to their magazine team at Collier's Weekly in 1904. Despite Gibson’s loyalty to Life, Collier and Nast persisted, and a complicated sharing relationship was agreed upon with Life for his services, worth a staggering $100,000 for 100 illustrations over a four-year period.

While the height of Gibson’s popularity was between 1900 and 1910, his productivity continued well into the 1920s with the Gibson Girl as his best known subject. The Gibson Girl became a symbol of youthful American femininity that embodied modernism, athleticism, intelligence, style, and desirability. She even had influence on American fashion, with new

lines being created in response to her various clothing styles. The Gibson Girl represented an idealized version of American femininity, which captivated the imagination of the country and provided a unique American identity.

During World War I, Gibson played a pivotal role in the Division of Pictorial Publicity, which aimed to create propaganda posters to support the war effort. After the war, however, the public's interest shifted away from the Gibson Girl and towards other cultural phenomena, like jazz music, flappers and booze, among others.

Provenance: Private Collection Maine

Literature: "Pictures of People" by Charles Dana Gibson, printed by Robert Howard Russell 1896

In 1920, a group of illustrators, writers and staff members led by Gibson purchased Life magazine at auction. Despite owning the largest number of shares, Gibson could not save the publication from the tough competition brought by new rivals such as the New Yorker, Fortune and Time. As a result Life fell into near demise, and Gibson had to sell the magazine in 1932. From here, at the age of sixty-five, he retired and devoted his time to creating artworks in oil, which were not as polished as his previous pen and ink drawings. However, his oil paintings were exhibited by The American Academy of Arts and Letters, and a New York Times critic praised his talent, proclaiming that "Charles Dana Gibson is a painter." In Gibson’s later years he and his wife spent more and more time at 700 Acre Island, Gibson’s summer home on the island of Islesboro, Maine.

Charles Dana Gibson passed away quietly at his New York residence in 1944. At the time of his death he was considered the most celebrated pen-and-ink artist of his time as well as a painter applauded by the critics of his later work. Despite his artistic pursuits, Gibson's name and legacy are still mostly associated with the iconic Gibson Girl, whose idealized beauty has endured in popular culture even after a century. Although the public may have forgotten his oil paintings, the Gibson Girl has remained a strong symbol of beauty and elegance.
