Susette Keast a member of the Philadelphia Ten, a group of women exhibitors in the early tweentieth century, was also one of the more desirable to collect.  As she only lived to the age of 40, very few of her paintings ever come onto the market.  She has a distinctive palet with quick confident brush strokes and rich color.   This wonderful landscape is entitled  “Chateau Frontenac, Quebec, Canada".  It is signed and titled on verso and is complemented by a carved and signed Frederick Harer frame.
