Quaytman, R. H. (American, contemporary), Untitled Abstract, 1988, oil on wood panel, signed Rebecca Quaytman, titled and dated on the verso, 15 inches square, unframed. This is one of the earliest works by Quaytman to appear at auction. Provenance: from the personal collection of art historian Ann Sutherland Harris, Pittsburgh, PA.

The show also travelled to Austin, Brooklyn and Pittsburgh, and helped to open up the field of women’s studies in the discipline. Harris was a founding member and first president of the Women’s Caucus for Art. She wrote nine books and exhibition catalogues (including works on Artemisia Gentileschi and Alice Neel), more than a hundred articles and reviews, and was part of the faculty at the University of Pittsburgh from 1984-2012.
