LOUIS FREUND (1905-1999) ARKANSAS REGIONALIST TOWN VIEW
Est: $3,000 - $4,000
Harry Louis Freund (1905-1999) Below the Crescent Hotel Circa 1930s The prototypical 1930s American Scene image of Regionalist identity depicts the stately and elegant Crescent Hotel above a time-worn and somewhat dilapidated neighborhood of Eureka Springs, Arkansas. The work is signed lower right front and displayed in a nicely suited contemporary frame. At about the time this picture was made, Louis Freund was, in his own words, working, 'As a Works Progress Administration painter in Arkansas in 1936 with a $40 Model T Ford and a grant of $76 a month for expenses, I drove to the Ozarks and Missouri and made pictures of a way of life which was rapidly disappearing. The works were sent to Washington to decorate government offices, and hospital rooms later.' The artist went on to recall of this period, 'Under government-sponsored competitions, I was awarded $20 per square foot to paint murals in small post offices in three states to commemorate local history.' Two of those murals he mentions were in Arkansas. Later, from 1939 to 1946, he was a Resident Artist and then Art Department Head (1941-1946) at Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. He also founded an artist colony and school in picturesque Eureka Springs. Sight size measures 23.5 x 19.5 with a framed size of 31.5 x 27 inches.

LOUIS FREUND (1905-1999) OIL ON MASONITE DATED 1935
Est: $3,500 - $4,500
Louis (Harry Louis) Freund (1905-1999) Mattison's Blacksmith Shop, Conway Arkansas 1935 or 1936 The untitled Regionalist Movement oil on Masonite is signed and dated by Louis Freund lower right front. The date is a bit illegible. While the artist didn't provide a title for this painting, or name the location, he does provide a clue with the sign out front lettered MATTISON. In September of 2021, the City of Conway, Arkansas commissioned an ' African American Historic Context Study' in which researchers documented the history of Black-owned businesses in Conway. Researchers found that, '' The Mattison family started a blacksmith shop at Mill and Markham in the early 1900s, which grew into a general repair and welding shop then transitioned to auto repair;'' They also observed that, .'' Black-owned businesses in the neighborhood included a cafe, a dry cleaner, and several small grocery stores/confectionaries mixed into the fabric of the residential areas; these small neighborhood stores did not have a large selection and neighborhood residents walked or drove downtown to White-owned grocery for some items.'' One could argue there are other clues suggesting this is a painting of the Mattison property in old Conway, Arkansas. This scene depicts a blacksmith shop next to a clapboard grocery seemingly held together by tin advertising signs - the name Mattison being painted on one of them. Another advertises Butter-Nut Bread. It has been recorded that around 1920, Willie and Luella Mattison purchased a property at 349 Markham Street and owned a blacksmith shop next door. Also, the artist portrays a dark-skinned girl wearing a yellow dress standing outside the clapboard structure, while through the screen door there appears to be the figure of a dark skinned boy wearing a hat. Add to this that from 1933 until 1949, Louis Freund spent a great deal of time in and around the town of Conway as student, artist and teacher. At about the time this picture was made, he was, in his own words, working, '' As a Works Progress Administration painter in Arkansas in 1936 with a $40 Model T Ford and a grant of $76 a month for expenses, I drove to the Ozarks and Missouri and made pictures of a way of life which was rapidly disappearing. The works were sent to Washington to decorate government offices, and hospital rooms later.'' The artist went on to recall of this period, '' Under government-sponsored competitions, I was awarded $20 per square foot to paint murals in small post offices in three states to commemorate local history.'' Two of the murals he mentions were in Arkansas, including one in the town of Heber Springs, an hour from Conway. Perhaps more research could confirm what appears to be a very strong case for the attribution of the scene depicted here. The Mattison family enjoys a long, rich history of prominence in Conway. Their ranks include more than a few doctors (Dr. Columbus A. Mattison was Conway's first African American doctor), generations of blacksmiths, teachers, farmers, preachers, and Tuskegee Airman Major William T. Mattison.

LOUIS FREUND (1905-1999) OIL ON ARTIST'S BOARD
Est: $2,000 - $3,000
Harry Louis Freund (Missouri / Arkansas, 1905-1999) A Circus Backlot Circa 1935. The classic example of 1930s American realism depicts the sunlit backlot of a traveling circus and the activities of workers, perhaps performers, in everyday clothing tending to everyday chores of housekeeping and maintenance while the colorful Ferris wheel and waving flags of the circus suggest a less banal experience beyond the troupe's wagons. This work is signed lower right by Louis Freund, the grass roots Regionalist from Clinton, Missouri, and displayed in what appears to be its original frame. Louis Freund was a lifelong artist who received mural commissions during the WPA era, worked as an illustrator, exhibited widely, won numerous awards, and held a number of positions as art instructor throughout the 20th century. Sight size measures 17.5 x 23.5 with a framed size of 24.25 x 30.25 inches. AN ABSENTEE BID PLACED IN ADVANCE COULD LOSE TO A LIVE BID OF EQUAL AMOUNT PLACED LATER.

CONTACT US SKU#: 117553 US Shipping $49 + insurance. BIOGRAPHY: Harry Louis Freund (1905–1999) Harry Louis Freund was a muralist who became famous for his depictions of life in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas during the 1930s. His artwork is identified with the American scene painters and muralists, such as John Stuart Curry, Grant Wood, and Thomas Hart Benton. He was instrumental in establishing art departments at two Arkansas institutions, Hendrix College and Little Rock Junior College (now University of Arkansas at Little Rock), as well as Stetson University in De Land, Florida. He and his wife, Elsie Bates Freund, founded the Summer Art School in Eureka Springs (Carroll County) and helped shape that resort town as a year-round community for artists and writers. Louis Freund was born on September 16, 1905, in Clinton, Missouri. His father died while Louis was young. He was inspired to become an artist by his mother, who painted copies of other paintings; an uncle who painted miniature portraits; and a cousin, Evelyn Sturgis. Freund attended the University of Missouri at Columbia from 1923 to 1925 and Washington University in St. Louis from 1925 to 1929. In 1929, he received the E.H. Wuerpel travel scholarship for one year of foreign travel and study; while in Paris, he studied at the Colarossi Academy and La Grande Chaumiere. Freund returned to the United States and, from 1930 to 1932, worked as a professional artist in New York City. He found work with the federally supported fine arts section of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and began competing for mural commissions. Freund traveled through the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas and Missouri for months to record the vanishing culture of that area. He painted murals on post office and bank buildings in Heber Springs (Cleburne County), Pocahontas (Randolph County), Eureka Springs, Rogers (Benton County), and Harrison (Boone County), as well as in Florida, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, and Missouri. Freund is said to have sent 100 paintings to Washington DC. Freund was also a draftsman, easel painter, and printmaker, and his work followed five broad themes: European landscape, American genre, protest against war, regional landscape, and Christian subject matter. Freund’s style sought for emotional impact in the use of dramatic heavy outlines, somber colors, and compositions with strong diagonal axis. His style in the beginning was light and illustrative and seemed more adventuristic in terms of expression, whereas his later works followed great traditions in artistic styles. As in early Renaissance painting, Freund tended to compress time and space elements in order to capture everything in a cohesive moment—an ability useful in mural painting.
