Lee Gatch

A public patron is researching the painter Lee Gatch.

The Maryland Art Source contains a short biography of Gatch and lists some resources.

The library has two books about Lee Gatch.

Articles can be found in Art Full Text / Art Retrospective.

Searching For The Messiah

I am interested in finding a painting that is white on white or grey, of The Messiah.

The painting found is "In the Clouds of Heaven," by Harry Anderson, which was found on several sites, including Miracles of Jesus, and Pictures of Jesus 4 You, which also lists other paintings by Anderson.

Information on Harry Anderson was found on BPIB (Been Publishing, I'm Back).

Additional sources on Anderson can be found by searching the ARTbibliographies Modern database.

Frederick William Burton

A public patron was looking for biographical information on 19th century artist Frederick William Burton.

Auction prices were found in Hislops Art Sales Index and Benezit Dictionary of Artists. Biographical information was found in Benezit, Allgemeines Lexikon Der Bildenden Kunstler, and Grove Art Online.

Additional citations were found from Country Life, an article from Irish Arts Review Yearbook, and Irish Watercolours and Drawings.
