Atwood, Mary Hall (sold)


Mary Hall Atwood (February 20, 1894 - October 4, 1950) was an American artist who specialized in murals and map-making. Born in Chicago, Atwood studied in Paris at the Academie Julian, where she was a student of Robert-Fleury and Jean Francois Millet. She moved to Los Angeles in the late 1920s and soon gained a reputation for the decorative maps of Southern California, which she called 'Travel and Pleasure Maps'. She was an active member of the California Watercolor Society and in her travels throughout the Southwest United States, completed a mural commission for the Phoenix Rotary Club. Atwood died in Glendale California in 1950.
