Agnes Driscoll Original Artwork

SKU: MT1031454Orig

23 X 35 Oil
We know the portraits of Agnes and Mart hung in their Snake River Bottoms home up until 1925. Agnes’ maiden name was Teichert, and it would be her brother, Herman, that Minerva would marry.
“Everyone always entered the house through the kitchen and visited in the kitchen. I only remember going into the living room once, it was a dark room. It had the pictures Minerva painted of Agnes and Martin hung on the wall. Agnes never had running water you could drink, so she always have to haul her drinking water. Agnes always cooked on a wood burning or coal stove. She never had an electric stove.”
The application of paint on this and the portrait of Martin Driscoll is thicker for Minerva. It is classic, as she would have been taught back East. Elements of Minerva’s unique style appear in Agnes and Martin’s faces. We believe these paintings were painted after 1912 and prior to 1920. While Martin died in 1936, Agnes lived until 1973.
