Private Collection 14" x 10" Attrib. with certificate Henrietta Mary Shore was a Canadian-born artist who lived a large part of her life in the United States, most notably California, attributed to Henrieta Mary Shore.Shore spent her last years in poverty. She had to sell her Weston photographs to survive and became increasingly depressed. Sometime in the late 1950s her neighbors had her institutionalized. Her very dear friend, Jehanne Bietry Salinger, said about the matter, "some so-called 'do-gooders' went to her studio, found it disorganized, and had Henrietta committed to an asylum. If I had been in Carmel, I would never have permitted it, since she was in no way insane. I still can not think about this without being heartbroken." Shore died in 1963 at the age of 83 in a mental institution in San Jose, California ( Condition Good)
