ORIG EDWARD DINGLE WATERCOLOR BIRD PAINTING Golden Crowned Kinglet Charleston SC

Description: For your consideration is this original & superb watercolor & gouache painting by listed South Carolina artist Edward von Siebold Dingle (1893 - 1975). The subject is a Golden-crowned Kinglet on a holly branch with berries & Spanish moss. Looks to be in fine condition with no visible flaws in its original frame with light green matting under glass. Over-all it measures approximately 18 5/8" tall x 14 3/4" framed & 9" x 12" site. Signed "E.S.Dingle". Edward von Siebold Dingle was born in Charleston, South Carolina, on October 18, 1893. As a boy he lived on a plantation near the Santee River and developed an early interest in birds and in drawing them. He graduated from the College of Charleston, but as an artist was self-taught, except for some instruction in landscape from Alfred Hutty. About 1923 he took up art as a career and combined it with his avocation of ornithology. He collected over a thousand bird specimens and learned from Arthur Trezevant Wayne how to prepare and preserve them (The collection is now at the Charleston Museum). Painting live birds from dead specimens was not simply a matter of copying. As Dingle explained, "It takes years of research to become a bird painter. You must have accurate scientific knowledge of how the feathers of a particular bird grow, and how their bones and muscles are placed." Dingle's primary medium was watercolor, and he painted birds against landscape and foliage backgrounds which suggested their natural habitats. In 1963 his Warbler series was exhibited at the Gibbes Museum in Charleston. Dingle had fourteen watercolors and a charcoal sketch in the first American exhibition of bird paintings, held in Los Angeles in 1926. In 1937 some of his works were included in the First National Exhibition of American Artists at Rockefeller Center in New York. His works also were exhibited at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, at the Mint Museum in Charlotte, North Carolina, and in Canada. He is represented in the permanent collections of the University of the South at Sewanee, Tennessee, at the Cambridge Museum in Massachusetts, the Carolina Art Association and the Gibbes Art Gallery in Charleston. His paintings were reproduced in numerous scientific periodicals, and in books like South Carolina Bird Life. Dingle's research led to the addition of six species to the list of South Carolina birds. After 1927, when Dingle married Marie G. Ball, they lived at Middleburg Plantation in Huger, South Carolina. He died on April 21, 1975.
