488236 The Butterfly Catchers, 1900-8 (oil on canvas) by Wendel, Theodore (1859-1932); 63.5 x 88.9 cm; Minneapolis Institute of Arts, MN, USA; (add.info.: The Butterfly Catchers was executed at Wendel\'s farm in Ipswich, Massachusetts, and includes the artist\'s son and daughter in the foreground. The work exhibits those aspects that characterize the artist\'s highly personal style - a high-key color palette, sketchy, textural, handling of paint, and direct observation. The result is the convincing realization of children caught in gleeful pursuit of their winged prizes in a landscape resplendent with color. ); 穢 Minneapolis Institute of Art; The Julia B.
