About the Item

Colorado Mountain Town, original, vintage signed painting by early Colorado woman artist Adma Green Kerr (1878-1949). Painted in the 1920s-1940s, the scene shows a Mining town in the Colorado Mountains with buildings and a figure feeding geese/ducks. Painted in a post impressionist style. Signed by the artist in the lower left corner, titled verso. Presented in a custom frame, outer dimensions measure 21 ¾ x 26 ¾ x ¾ inches. Image size is 19 x 24 inches. About the Artist: Born 1878, died 1949 in Boulder, Colorado Adma Kerr came to Denver in the 1920s, when her work in Chicago and Washington D.C. had already made her a successful regional artist. She lived and worked in Denver until 1934, when she moved to Estes Park. There she continued to pursue her interest in Colorado landscapes and share ideas with other regional painters. She was a founding member of the Colorado Artist’s Guild, formed in 1928, and exhibited at the Denver Art Museum in 1926, 1936, and 1937. In 1942 she moved to Boulder, where she remained until the end of her life. Kerr’s landscapes, usually in oil or pastels, tend towards coniferous mountain scenes painted with wide strokes of saturated color. Five of her regional works were recently acquired by the Estes Park Museum, where they are part of the permanent collection. Exhibited: Society of Washington Artists, 1916; Denver Art Museum, 1926, 1936, 1937 (all solo exhibitions). Works Held: Estes Park Museum, Estes Park Colorado.
