My View of Life on the Dock
Apple cider mimosa! Picture perfect.
GMG Jimmy had the Rockport omelette with orange marmalade and linguisa. It was already marked with ketchup graffiti by the time the camera clicked.
I enjoyed a crab cake wrap. Made me fall in love with crab cakes again.
To prove I wasn’t only looking at food, I noticed the Again and Again bags on the walls. Nice touch!
Thanks Sugar Magnolias for a lovely lunch. See you again soon.

Loved the article in the latest addition of Historic New England on Craft Masters Paint by Numbers. They are part of my history. While living in Europe in the late 50’s, early 60’s my father painted quit a few, they sold them in the PX and they were something to do.
When he was away on special assignment he had time on his hands and he would paint them. I’m lucky to still have a few!
The Edward Hopper etching The Lonely House was the star lot going into the sale and in the live auction last night. The print sold for $310,000 vaulting past its pre auction estimate of $150,000-$200,000.
Hopper’s Les Poilus circa 1915 surpassed its $15000-$20,000 pre-sale estimate as well, selling for $42,500. I’ve sold an impression of the Lonely House before but I’ve only scene Les Poilus in the Whitney collection.
The sale featured Old Master through Modern prints by American and European artists.
Here’s a link to the Swann Galleries catalogue for the November 4th 2017 sale 2460 and the Swann Galleries auction results. Images in this post are from Swann Galleries.
Besides Edward Hopper, there were prints by artists with Gloucester connections (or topics of interest such as a 1680 engraving of a beached whale).
Records were achieved for other prints like Martin Lewis, Relics, $55,000
a rare Odilon Redon 1892 lithograph sold for $47,500
and a Rembrandt 1631 etching, Self portrait with Cap Pulled Forward, that sold for $65,000.
See more highlights below the “read more” break from the nearly 500 prints that were sold at the November Swann Galleries auction.
Head to the Cape Ann museum Fitz Henry Lane exhibition Drawn from Nature and on Stone: The lithgraphs of Fitz Henry Lane to experience a great print show in person. Continue reading “Rare Edward Hopper print The Lonely House fetched record auction price @SwannGalleries”

I know we keep saying it, but it was another beautiful day today! Got my feet wet at the beach during high tide. I wasn’t the only one having fun at Good Harbor Beach today. Gulls, dogs, friends and some crazy guy swimming.
