Josephine Paddock (April 18, 1885 – 1964) was an American painter born in New York City. She earned a B.A. degree at Barnard College and studied at the Art Students League with Robert Henri, Kenyon Cox, William Merritt Chase, and John Alexander. Her sister Ethel Louise Paddock, born two years later and who also studied with Henri would also become a painter and a member of the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors.〔Opitz, Glenn B., ''Mantle Fielding's Dictionary of American Painters, Sculptors & Engravers'', Apollo Books, Poughkeepsie, NY, 1988〕 Both sisters would go on to exhibit at Henri's ''Exhibition of Independent Artists'' in 1910, a show that in some ways was a prototype for the Armory Show three years later. ==Armory Show of 1913== Paddock was one of the artists who exhibited at this landmark show. The show included three of her watercolors. These were: ''Swans on the grass'' ($50), ''Swan study-peace'' ($50), and ''Swan study-aspiration'' ($50),.〔Brown, Milton W., "The Story of the Armory Show", The Joseph H. Hirshhorn Foundation, 1963, pp. 274–75〕 Her work was among forty-eight 19th and 20th Century paintings in the collection of Seymour R. Thaler and Mildred Thaler Cohen which was bequeathed to the Mattatuck Museum, Waterbury, Connecticut, in 2000. Paddock was a member of the American Watercolor Society, Connecticut Academy of Fine Arts, New Haven Paint & Clay Club, Grand Central Art Gallery, NYC, North Shore Art Association, Gloucester, MA, American Artist Professional League. The Josephine Paddock Fellowship is the highest award for graduate studies in the arts at Barnard College, Columbia University, in New York City.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Josephine Paddock」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
