| Wash Day in Toquerville. The above photo was taken by Dorothea Lange, Photographer. It is from the Online Archive of California circa 1953. The little girl is Stephen Naegle's sister, Lynda. Since I didn't have Carol's image of Wash Day in Albuquerque, I wanted to put this image up temporarily. I like it enough to leave it. David Naegle shared this wealth of Lange photos. Turns out if you read the Archive, that she worked with Ansel Adams the famous landscape photographer. |
| 32. The Wash Line For the first 16 years, the owner didn't know she had this painting. Carol Hause Smith, was having Stephen Naegle's watercolor painting, The Mill reframed in 1980 and matted. She received an urgent call from the studio to please come down at once. Concerned she drove back to the gallery. Several thoughts ran through her mind, but it all became clear when she saw the Naegle painting on the reverse side of The Mill. Stephen painted two paintings on the same paper. He had judged Wash Line unworthy of his signature or any acknowledgement. The painting was already framed and the Wash line covered when Carol received it. Oh, my, Carol, what a treasure! Thank you so much for your generous heart to share. The photos and article arrived today, September 5, 2006 (See The Mill, #19 on Page 3) |
| 33. Elkhorn Etching Here is an email excerpt from David Naegle Aug 30, 2006: "I actually have an example of his etching, called "Elkhorn" if memory serves. I'll try to remember to photograph it and send it to you. It looks to be of some old mining buildings." An etching from the Collection of David Naegle in Sepia tone. Many thanks David from all of us who get to enjoy ths work of your uncle, Stephen Naegle. |
