Rocky Seacoast

n.d.
22 in. x 11 1/2 in.

Robert Fullonton, (August 11, 1876–October 15, 1933)

Medium and Support: oil on wood panel
Credit Line: Florence Griswold Museum; Gift of the Artist
Accession Number: 1941.20.b
Dining Room Panel, East Wall; Florence Griswold Museum. This panel is actually hidden behind the Chadwick "Summer Landscape". Apparently Mr. Fullonton was evicted from the boarding house for not paying his bill for room and board to Miss Florence. The artists of the colony then turned his panel over and asked Mr. Chadwick to paint a new painting, thus shunning the Fullonton panel. In June of 2000, the Museum displayed the Fullonton panel for the first time in nearly 90 years. It was also in view during the winter of 2016-17.
A March 24, 1912, article in the Boston Globe shows a photograph of the east wall of the dining room in which the panel is shown as a blank, suggesting that Fullonton and Chadwick's paintings were done after this date. (see "Old Lyme Favored by Artists," Boston Globe, March 24, 1912, pg. SM3).
