Vintage post impressionist painting by NY artist and architect Edward Steese (1902-1981). Oil on canvas board, signed dated 1932. Presented in a gilt plein air frame with notched corners.
Edward Steese was born in Scarsdale, New York, in 1902 to Maude Heaton Steese and Dr. Edward Sturtevant Steese. He attended Princeton University, from which he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Art and Archaeology in 1924 and a master’s degree in Architecture in 1927.
Upon graduating, Steese joined the architecture firm of Carrère & Hastings where he became chief designer in 1927. Following the death of Thomas Hastings, Steese partnered with architect Lawrence G. Noyes to take over the firm under the name Noyes & Steese from 1930 until 1932. Steese went into private practice in New York in 1932 until he retired in 1960. Over the years, Steese donated nearly 500 architectural drawings, plans, and pertinent architectural items from Carrère & Hastings to the Avery Architectural & Fine Arts Library at Columbia University.
During World War I, Steese was deputy chief, Aircraft Section, of the Construction Division of the War Production Board. He also served as the chairman of Volunteer Services, Artists-for-Victory, for which he received a Certificate of Merit in 1951.
Along with his career in architecture, Steese was an accomplished artist, author, poet and preservationist. Among his publications were Storm in Harvest and Other Poems (1929), Spring Night: A Review of Youth (1927), Ephemerae: Poems of Edward Steese (1952) and First Snow (1954). He was also the editor of A Princeton Anthology (1925) and Poems of Neilson Abeel (1951).
Edward Steese was instrumental in the 1950s movement to take inventory of New York’s historic structures and build a constituency for historic preservation. His committee’s development of an index of structures worthy of preservation fostered public awareness and provided the intellectual capital that eventually drove the designation process.
Steese passed in 1981 at his home in Scarsdale at the age of 78.
