Macy, Munchen 78. Offered at Doyles Auction lot number 26, 2/23/11. In good condition. From Askart.com: William Starbuck Macy (1853-1945) was born in the historic Massachusetts community of New Bedford, which at the time of his birth was the nation's preeminent whaling port, serving as the home to over 300 ships engaged in the industry (many of them featured in the popular maritime art of this era). During the course of his career Macy's work was displayed at some of America's most selective annual art exhibitions, including the National Academy of Design (1875-1896); the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (1879-1880, 1888); the Boston Art Club (1880-1896); the Art Institute of Chicago (1889-1927); and the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. (biennial, 1937). He held memberships in the Lotos Club (an exclusive New York City gentleman's club with a primarily literary and artistic composition); the Society of American Artists (which was originally created as a counterpoint to the more conservative National Academy of Design, and where Macy occasionally exhibited); and the Artists' Fund Society (whose purpose was to aid the destitute families of artists who had died in poverty). Today, his work is publicly exhibited at the New Bedford Whaling Museum, an adjunct of the Old Dartmouth Historical Society. William Starbuck Macy died in Santa Barbara, California, in 1945.
