Painting of the Day, October, 18, 2011

By Donna Poulton

Minverva Beretta Kohlhepp Teichert (1888 – 1976) studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and with Robert Henri at Art Students League in New York City.  At the urging of Henri, she returned to the West to paint “her heritage.”  She married and settled in Cokeville, Wyoming where she painted mural size canvases in the living room of her modest home.
