About the Item

A painting by Jessie Arms Botke. "The White Peacock" is a wildlife impressionist painting, oil on canvas in a palette of whites, blues, and browns by female, American artist Jessie Arms Botke. The artwork is signed in the lower left, "JESSIE ARMS BOTKE, 1922". Jessie Hazel Arms Botke was an American female artist who hold a high place in the California School of Impressionism. She was born in Chicago in 1883, and became known for her exotic, highly decorated bird studies -- most often, they are pictures of birds, a large variety including white peacocks, blue peacocks, cockatoos, ducks, swans, geese, pheasants, and toucans, among others. The birds are shown in natural settings accompanied by carefully painted flora, her paintings are richly adorned with an abundance of detail. She also did other subjects including Indian figures, genre, and desert landscapes, and usually painted in oil but worked in watercolor and gouache and frequently used gold and silver leaf in backgrounds. Provenance: Sale, Auction, 2005 Private Collection, Ohio
