      Est: $1,200 - $1,800

      Emily B. Summa Streator, Illinois Haystacks oil on canvas signed lower right, framed. Emily B. Summa was born in Mannheim, Germany. She studied at the Saint Louis School of Fine Arts and at Washington University in St. Louis with Impressionist painters Dawson Dawson-Watson, Edgar Bissell, and Frederick Sylvester. Summa was a member of the Saint Louis Artists' Guild, where in 1917, she earned the Frederick Oakes Sylvester prize for landscapes. In 1916, she participated in the Corcoran Gallery Biennial in Washington D.C. She also participated in many individual and group exhibitions in St. Louis. A regional landscape artist, Summa masterfully handles color and balance in her paintings. In Spring Landscape with Red Bud and Dogwood Tree she uses the trunks and the branches of the trees to visually organize the space. Delicate and powerful, the dark brown of the wood provides strong compositional lines. The colors add to a sense of a quiet balance. Green is the predominant color and functions as background, at the same time unifying the composition. The darker pink recedes, while the white becomes the focal point. The yellow mixed in with the green creates areas of apparent internal light.
