American School, Early 19th Century Belisarius Inscribed "Belisarius Delinated [sic] By P.B. Wescott." Watercolor on paper, 18 x 25 in. (sight), matted and framed. Condition: Toning, repair to tear from lower edge, minor stains, losses, and abrasions. Provenance: Acquired from Grace and Elliott Snyder, S. Egremont, Massachusetts, April 28, 1985. Note: Arthur Kern reports that on the day he and Sybil purchased this work, Judy Lenett had another similarly composed work of the same subject signed by Betsy Warren, of Saratoga [presumably New York], dated "May 12, 1817, Preceptress PBW." The Kerns surmise that Betsy Warren was a student of P.B. Wescott, who is listed in Lipman and Winchester's Primitive Painters in America, p. 182, as an artist from Greenfield, Massachusetts, known to have painted a watercolor memorial.
