UNTITLED

Cadmus, Egbert (American, 1868-1939). UNTITLED. Watercolor on heavy paper. Signed, dated 1926, and inscribed "Provincetown" in watercolor, lower right. The scene depicts a house near a dune with a view of other houses and the Harbor beyond. 21 x 16 1/2 inches (sheet). In excellent condition.
Egbert Cadmus is remembered as the father of Paul Cadmus, though he had a distinguished career in his own right. There is a portrait of Paul by Egbert dated 1926, and we've seen other Provincetown drawings dated 1927, so apparently the family summered there for several seasons. In 1931 Egbert Cadmus moved to Lyme Connecticut, and he is primarily known as a member of the Lyme Art Colony.
