About the Item

Signed Lower Left Painting Size: 30" × 24" This charming street scene by Carl W. Peters depicts a quiet moment of everyday life in Rockport, Massachusetts—an iconic New England coastal village long celebrated by American artists. Rockport Street Neighbors Chatting presents a sunlit street (what we believe may be Gott St.) where figures gather casually along a wooden fence, capturing a sense of community and timelessness. Peters’ painterly approach combines warm earth tones with confident, gestural brushstrokes, lending energy and authenticity to the composition. The architecture, mature trees, and relaxed human interaction reflect a distinctly American regionalist sensibility, making this work both narrative and atmospheric. A fine example of mid-20th-century American genre and landscape painting, this piece is especially appealing to collectors of Cape Ann, Rockport, and New England art.

By Gerrit Beneker
Located in New York, NY
Gerrit Beneker (1882 - 1934) Wellfleet, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, New England, 1926 Oil on canvas 20 x 16 inches Signed, titled, and dated lower left Provenance: Louis H. Barnett, Fort Worth, Texas In 1905, Gerrit Beneker began his art career as an illustrator. He married Flora Judd, his high school sweetheart from Grand Rapids and they moved to Brooklyn, NY. Gerrit's early passion was to create an art that would inspire and provide honor to the workingman. As such, he had no interest in painting portraits of pretty women, which were so often seen on the magazine covers of the day. Rather he wanted to seek out workingmen on the bridges, tunnels and skyscrapers of NYC, and paint them in their environments. He completed over 150 magazine covers, numerous ads including many for Ivory Soap...
