      Adalie Margules Brent (American/Louisiana, 1920)

      Est: $600 - $800

      Adalie Margules Brent (American/Louisiana, 1920-1992) , "Sunflowers under Streetlight", 1948, oil on canvas board, signed and dated lower left, inscribed on frame, 24 in. x 18 in., framed. Note: Adalie Brent lived a life filled with art. She was an artist working in multiple media, a graphic designer, teacher and long-time museum director who had an influential role in the development of the cultural scene of Baton Rouge for over four decades. After several years of teaching at Louisiana State University in the early 1950s, Brent continued to teach at Saint Joseph’s Academy for twelve years. She then became the first director of the Louisiana Arts and Science Center in Baton Rouge. In her eighteen years in that capacity, she oversaw the museum's move from the Old Governor's Mansion on North Boulevard to the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad Co. Depot on the Mississippi River in 1976, when her own stained-glass windows were installed in the newly constructed auditorium. Although perhaps best-known for her stained glass commissions in places of worship, institutions and hospitals in south Louisiana, Brent also was a life-long painter. As seen in the work offered here, she displayed a talent for selecting subjects from everyday life and arranging them in such a way to compel the viewer to take note, all while skillfully translating the graphic aesthetic of her preferred media to canvas.
