Marie Atkinson Hull (American/Mississippi, 1890-1980), "Macaws: A Three-Panel Folding Screen", c. 1925, oil on wood, signed upper right of right panel, 66 1/4 in. x 17 in. (individual panels), 69 in. x 60 in. (overall screen) Note: In the mid 1920s, Marie Hull and her husband Emmett spent a year in St. Petersburg, Florida, where Emmett opened an architectural office. Marie painted the flora and fauna of the then-undeveloped landscape. In this monumental three-paneled screen of colorful parrots, she beautifully captures the multi-hued feathers and distinctive traits of the macaw parrots as they perch on branches and interact with one another.
