In
1999 The North Shore Arts Association held a sweeping retrospective of
the works of Frederick J. Mulhaupt (1871-1938).
Chairman of the exhibition
committee was Robert Benedict. Honorary Chair was Charles J. Movalli.
This retrospective was accompanied by a catalog.
There were
painters in Gloucester in the old days who were more exact than he was
- more "authentic"
in that they got the shape of each boat exactly
right. But many of these paiters, as you looked at their work,
might just
as well have been painting a scene in England or Norway. Mulhaupt got the smell of
Gloucester on canvas.
He captured the mood of the place - and that's worth
all the good drawing of a hundred lesser painters.

Gruppé (1896-1978)
