Anthony Thieme"Rockport Street Scene (Horse and Cart)" by Anthony Thieme, Landscape Painter
About the Item
Anthony Thieme was a landscape and marine painter and a major figure of the Rockport School of American Art. He was a contemporary of important Rockport artists: Aldro Hibbard, Emil Gruppe, W. Lester Stevens, Antonio Cirino, and Marguerite Pierson. Born in Rotterdam on 20 February 1888, Thieme studied at the Academie of Fine Arts in Rotterdam for two years and then, briefly, at the Royal Academy, the Hague. He traveled widely in Europe, frequently finding work as a stage designer.
Thieme traveled to the United States at the age of 22. He quickly found work as a stage designer at the Century Theater in New York, designing sets for the Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. When the commission ended, he traveled to South America, primarily Brazil and Argentina. Stage work again provided his livelihood. A return to Europe followed with further work in England, France, and Italy.
Returning to the United States with a contract for additional stage work, Thieme found himself in Boston. He discontinued work on the stage in 1928 and from then on made his living with the sales of his paintings and etchings. Thieme married Lillian Beckett in 1929 and moved to Rockport, MA. He established the Thieme School of Art. He exhibited his work frequently at the Grand Central Art Galleries in New York.
He continued to travel widely; Mexico, Guatemala, Florida, and France were major destinations, always painting en Plein Air. “The open air is my studio,” he is quoted as saying. “A good landscape painter must paint fast to catch the light of any hour. Unless you know what to put in, what to leave out, the result is a mess.”
Thieme was the recipient of numerous honors and awards in his lifetime, including the Delano Prize from the New York Watercolor Club, and his work today can be found in the collections of the Boston Museum of Fine Art, Boston, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, among others.
