Meanwhile, last week’s mystery – “What a view” – shows an oil painting of Boone Hall Plantation by Charleston artist Edwin Harleston. The painting, created around 1925, is in the Gibbes Museum of Art. While Harleston was known for his portraits, he completed this painting after a summer of training at the School of the Arts Institute in Chicago. The house in the painting was demolished in 1935, according to the Gibbes.
Congratulations to those who correctly identified the painting: Jay Altman of Columbia; Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; and George Graf of Palmyra, Va.
