Newsboy Portrait Steals Boston Art Club Show Spotlight
A lifelike painting of a Boston newsboy by Elva D. Cowdery draws critics at the 75th Boston Art Club exhibition. The subject is believed to be 10 year old Samuel Channing with his sister Lillian aiding in selling papers at Church and Boylston. Critics note the cheerful grin and four studio sittings that birthed the work while several prominent artists and sculptors contribute works in bronze and plaster.
