The Thomas T. Taber Museum will display the still life painted by Severin Roesen shown here.
The Thomas T. Taber Museum of the Lycoming County Historical Society is acquiring another Severin Roesen painting. The painting has been loaned by Bobby Maguire in honor of his parents, Jim and Shirley Maguire, according to a news release.
It is Bobby Maguire’s intention to turn the loan into a permanent gift within the year.
“We are so thrilled to receive this loan from Mr. Maguire. His generosity and kindness is beyond measure thanks to him all of our visitors will be able to view the beauty of Roesen’s work,” said Gary Parks, museum director, according to a news release. “Many folks within Lycoming County appreciated his work but it was not until Jacqueline Kennedy outfitted the White House with two Roesens that his talent was more fully appreciated by our country.”
