Richmond are receiving renewed interest in the art market. Born in Alton, Ilinois in 1870, Agnes Millen Richmond was considered one of the key women artists who, along with frequent co-exhibitors Jane Peterson and Rhoda Holmes Nicholls, taught art students in the early 20th century. She studied at the St. Louis School of Fine Arts and continued her studies at the Arts Students League in New York with Twachtman, Appleton, Clark and Kenyon Cox. Richmond was a member of the original Woodstock colony, and with her husband Winthrop Turney, spent summers painting in Gloucester, Mass. and Mountainville, N.Y. She exhibited widely, including the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco and the Academy of Design from 1908 to 1927. More recently, her work has appeared in collections that focus on American women artists, such as the Louise and Alan Sellars collection.
