Artist
Mary Cox Palethorpe
Mary Cox Palethorpe is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
A watercolorist active around 1907, Mary Cox Palethorpe set brush to paper along the Normandy coast. Her sheet “The Mouth of the Seine. Shore scene at low tide” shows wet sand, scattered boats, and the wide river’s reflection under a cloudy sky. She worked quickly in the open air, letting pigments pool where the tide had just receded. To see how she balanced reflection and shadow on wet sand, tap into the same seaside view in her watercolor “The Mouth of the Seine. Shore scene at low tide.”
