Works by Albert Rufus Thayer
Thayer was a longstanding member of the Rockport Art Association, where he served as a treasurer. His work is included in the permanent Museum Collection of the Rockport Art Association and was featured in a traveling exhibition titled 'Images of a New England Seacoast' 1900–1950. He provided the illustration for the American edition of a popular Christmas book, The Man at the Gate of the World. He also provided the illustrations for the book, The Mystery of Molly Mott. He is best known for marshy landscapes and harbor scenes, but on occasion, he painted a Boston house that caught his fancy. His work, primarily his oil paintings, occasionally appear at auction and at private sales. He painted a portrait of Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy.
