Item Description

Dulah Evans Krehbiel: A Brief Biography
By Wendy Greenhouse, PhD

Dulah Evans Krehbiel was an early twentieth-century painter, graphic designer, printmaker, and photographer whose biography and artistic legacy have long been overshadowed by that of her husband, the painter and teacher Albert Krehbiel (1875-1945). Much of her work and family correspondence has survived as a body in the hands of family members, a fact that has contributed to her present-day relative obscurity while offering a rare opportunity to study an individual artist’s full artistic legacy. In this case, that legacy is of a remarkably varied career. Dulah emerges as one more of a host of early twentieth-century American women artists whose important stories are beginning to be told as scholars explore the histories both of women in the arts and of the regional history of American art.
