General Notes

Note

This is one of 25 paintings used in the 2008 exhibit "A Period of Perspective - The Art of Gertrude Penfield Seiberling" in the Music Room at Stan Hywet. The majority of these paintings were not framed, and some weren't on stretchers. Thus, new frames were added for the exhibit by Akron Center for Art & Framing, 1915 W. Market St, Akron, OH. Framed in March 2019 at Akrona Galleries (1765 W Market St, Akron, OH 44313) for 2019 season's exhibition on Gertrude's artwork.
