Lionel Barrymore (1878 - 1954) Antique etching, titled "Point Mugu", signed lower right and titled lower left. Etching View of Point Mugu in Ventura County, measures 14 x 17 inches. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on April 28, 1878 into a family of actors, Lionel Barrymore wanted to become a painter but followed family tradition and proceeded to become one of the best known actors of stage, screen, and radio. While working as an actor, he etched and painted in his leisure. He was a pupil of Ferdinand Kamps, whom he often joined on painting trips, and also he spent time with William Eskey learning etching for the first time at Eskey;s Twentynine Palms ranch in California. Barrymore was also the author of Mr. Cantonwine: A Moral Tale. During his last years, he was confined to a wheelchair due to a series of hip fractures. Most of Barrymore's life was spent as a resident of Los Angeles; he died there on Nov. 15, 1954.
