John B. Foster (1865-1930) American
John B. Foster (1865-1930) Watercolor & Gouache on paper, signed lower right, piece measures 17.5 x 12.5 and 25 x 19.5 inches with custom gilt frame, "John B. Foster was born in Gloucester on Christmas Day in 1865, the son of John B. Foster, a fisherman who emigrated from England, and Sarah E. Merchant, daughter of an established Cape Ann fishing family. His father was apparently lost at sea when he was young and his mother remarried. By 1888 he is a professional artist, listed in the Gloucester city directory. By 1897 he is living in Boston where he marries Emma Allen, born in England (vr). They have at least two children, Edith and Marion. The family moves to Somerville (census 1910,1920) and then Pepperell MA (census 1930). In each census John lists his occupation as artist."

All items may have normal signs of age and wear commensurate with their age; these issues will likely not be mentioned in the condition report.

Condition reports are provided as a courtesy, and we are not responsible for any errors or omissions.
Important note on frames: Frames are not guaranteed to be in the same condition as they are in the item photograph. Due to handling and shipping, many frames, especially antique ones, are prone to losses. If you have questions about the condition of a frame, please contact us prior to the auction.
