L. C. Earle - Earlier Years in
Grand Rapids
From the Grand Rapids Daily Eagle, April 6, 1867
(within a column on page 1, entitled "Personal")
L. C. Earle, Esq., intends visiting New York city the
coming winter, for the purpose of studying under some of the prominent
artists of that place. Two of his late pieces―paintings of birds―were
sold to-day to a gentleman from New York city, who was attracted by their
appearance on exhibition at Nelson & Eaton's bookstore. He sought out the
young artist, expressed himself both pleased and surprised with the
pieces, and was not slow in agreeing on the purchase price.
From the Grand Rapids Daily
Eagle, July 25, 1867
(within a column page 1, entitled "Gossip")
Stepping into the studio of our
young artist Earle, on Monroe st., we found him busy painting a mink,
rampant, taking for his copy a stuffed one, taken from life some time ago.
His walls are nearly deserted, but little of his work being left long on
his hands. An unfinished painting of his dog, guarding his gun and a brace
of birds; several sketches of base ball players in different attitudes; a
rough sketch or two on the animal that opened its mouth and spoke, once
upon a time, and one or two water and wood scenes, comprise the collection
at present in his studio. A brace of plovers, on exhibition at the
bookstore of Nelson & Eaton, is one of his latest pieces, and is much
admired and praised. The mate to this, a duck among the reeds, was bought
by Hon. T. D. Gilbert.
