Since the 1998 publication of D. Roger Howlett's "The Lynn Beach Painters: Art Along the North Shore 1880-1920" there has been heightened interest in the seven artists identified as Lynn Beach painters. One of the most celebrated and reviewed in his time was Charles Edwin Lewis Green (1844-1915). Green was the subject of his own exhibition and catalogue by Frederic Alan Sharf and John Hardy Wright in 1980 "C. E. L. Green: Shore and Landscape Painter of Lynn and Newlyn." As demand for works by these painters has grown, work by Green has been especially hard to find. Now, seven works from one of the seminal collections that helped to form the 1980 C. E. L. Green exhibition have come on the market. We are happy to present the opportunity to purchase some of the finest of Green's works, several of which were in the 1980 exhibition and catalogue and appeared in other exhibitions and publications.
