William Zorach Am. 1887–1966 A View Toward the White Mountains Signed and dated “Zorach 1917” l.r. Watercolor 112 x 15 in. 30.5 x 38.1 cm Property of Willow Evans, Santa Monica, California Provenance: The artist To Helaine Dorothy Blum, a student, close friend, and sculptor To the current owner by descent Information both from the current owner and found online: Information both from the current owner and found online:
Helaine Dorothy Blum, a sculptor best known for her bust of Albert Einstein, met him when he was working with her brother-in-law to free Jews from Nazi Germany, and they remained friends for the rest of his life. One of her limited edition Einstein bronzes resides at Cal Tech and another at the Neuropsychiatric Institute at UCLA. Ms. Blum also sculpted Rabbi Steven S. Wise, scientist Linus Pauling, and modernist composer Stefan Wolpe. She was scheduled to create a bronze portrait of Martin Luther King Jr., but he was assassinated before she could begin the project. A Cleveland native, Ms. Blum published a few short stories as a student. After she mistakenly walked into a sculpture class, she was asked to stay to be a model by the professor, sculptor and painter William Zorach. He introduced her to artist Max Weber, who also became a mentor.
