Name/Title
Back Shore Dune in WinterEntry/Object ID
3195.Ph23Description
Gloria Nardin was a celebrated artist that grew up in Queens, NY and spent her summers in Provincetown with her children. When she permanently moved to Wellfleet with her second husband and kids, she began to focus more on color photography. She was particularly interested in utilizing her camera as the role of the painter. In her snapshot of the Outer Cape back shore dunes, she captured the delicate texture and rippling of the sand, a pattern that may have naturally formed through erosion or possibly indented by the artist herself.Acquisition
