| Artist: |
Kidder, Margaret (California, 1904 - 1959) |
| Date: |
c. 1935 - 1945 |
| Medium: |
Original Etching and Engraving |
| Note: |
Margaret Kidder: A California painter, etcher
and lithographer Margaret Kidder exhibited her art throughout the state
and at annual California Printmakers expositions from approximately 1935
to 1955. She was particularly active in the Pasadena area and it is believed
she resided there. |
| |
Margaret Kidder's art is almost entirely dedicated to depictions of
the Madonna and Child or of women and young children in general. Her etchings
and engravings, in particular, bear affinities to the techniques of Renaissance
masters, such as in the handling of the backgrounds. The women, however,
are clearly contemporary. This, combined with the spirituality of her subjects,
creates an 'other world' quality to her art. The Library of Congress, Washington,
DC, and the San Francisco Museums of Fine Arts include examples of Margaret
Kidder's etchings in their permanent collections. |
