I just learned about a great artist, Allan Rohan Crite. He lived and worked in the South End for many years. He lived from 1910-2007. Articles I've read say his home was also a museum, located at 410 Columbus Ave, but I'm not sure if it's still up and running.
These are cool because you can see parts of Boston (South End) that you don't see in many photos (assuming, of course, they are of real locations ...).
The above is called "School's Out!" or something similar.
The Elevated on the MTA. But, where?
I read this is supposed to be Madison Park, but don't know. Most of Madison Park is now a project, no?
Harrison Ave, per chance?
This is supposed to be Hubert Street. I don't know where Hubert Street was.
This is the first painting I saw of Crite's. I could tell where this was, immediately (unless I'm wrong!). It's on Albany Street facing downtown near that new ball park, near where the bus terminal / Mobil Station is located. The mother church of the Archdiocese is between those two rows of townhouses. No?
Where was this?
More Madison Park?
Harrison Ave? Albany?
Er, not the best one, no?
