Hermann Dudley Murphy (American, 1867-1945) The Blue Sea Monogrammed signature l.r., signed or inscribed and titled "Hermann Dudley Murphy..." on the reverse, a label from Articoli per Belle Arte affixed to the reverse. Oil on canvasboard, 10 x 14 in. (25.4 x 35.6 cm), in a frame signed "19...09 Carrig Rohane 623" l.c. (under glass). Condition: Scattered retouch, not examined out of frame. N.B. Boston School artist, Herman Dudley Murphy began his studies at the Museum School in Boston with Edmund Tarbell and Frank Benson In 1891 he went to Paris where he attended the Academie Julian and studied with Jean-Paul Laurens While in Paris, Murphy met James Abbott McNeil Whistler and was inspired by the palette, tonality and compositions of the artist. Murphy, like Whistler, began to create his own frames that complemented his paintings. Upon his return to the US, Murphy opened a frame making studio, Carrig-Rohane, with Charles Prendergast (and later with W. Alfred Thulin). Murphy first traveled to Nicaragua in 1887 for his work as an illustrator for the Nicaraguan Canal Expedition. He continued to travel to the tropics throughout the late 1800s and early 1990s. These travels certainly influenced his art; by the 1910s Murphy departed from the soft colors and refined compositions that marked his early work and began to use a vibrant palette and energetic brushwork.
