About the Item
Signed lower right, 'Anna Lee Stacey' (American, 1871–1943) and dated, verso, 1924. An elegant and substantial still-life depicting apple blossoms elegantly and informally arranged before a Japanese Ukiyo-e (Floating World) print in the style of Utagawa Kuniyoshi. A large and important oil by this well-listed American woman artist who studied with Chase in New York and with Laurens in Paris.
Framed dimensions: 41 H x 2 D x 43 W inches
Anna Lee Stacey began her artistic education at the Art Students League in New York City, where she studied under the American Impressionist William Merritt Chase. His emphasis on direct observation and bold brushwork was profoundly influential on her early development. She continued her training at the ASL with the portraitist Irving R. Wiles who helped her develop her talent for the psychological penetration of her subjects and who also led her to explore greater complexities of color harmony. Stacey subsequently traveled to Paris to study at the Académie Julian. Here, she worked under the French master Jean-Paul Laurens, who became her guide in the rigorous drawing techniques and classical compositional methods of the French academic tradition.
Stacey earned early critical success and public recognition through competitive scholarships and prizes, receiving both the prestigious Dodge Prize from the National Academy of Design and the Julia A. Shaw Memorial Prize from New York's Art Students League.
From 1895, Stacey exhibited regularly at the National Academy of Design's annual exhibitions in New York. In 1906, she was elected to Associate membership of the NAD and, one year later, to full membership- a rare accomplishment for a woman of that time.
She also exhibited frequently and with success at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, one of America's most important showcasing venues and participated in exhibitions at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and at the Art Institute of Chicago (1895-1933). Additionally, she was a lifetime member of the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors and an invited exhibitor at the Pan-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco in 1915, an accomplishment that earned her broad national recognition.
Anna Lee Stacey's work is held in prestigious public and private collections nationwide including in the permanent collections of the National Academy of Design and the Smithsonian Museum of American Art among others. She is listed in all relevant art reference works including 'Who Was Who in American Art' and 'Artists in California (1786-1940)'.
