Authors Dwight McInvaill, Caroline Palmer and Anne Tinker discuss their newly-released book about one of Charleston’s most acclaimed artists, "Alice: Alice Ravenel Huger Smith, Charleston Renaissance Artist."
Alice is the story of a pioneering artist whose beautiful watercolors captured the mystical spirit of the Lowcountry’s coast, marshes, and woodlands. A leader of the Charleston Renaissance of the 1920s-1930s, she helped spark Charleston’s historic preservation movement and propel the city into an important destination for tourism. Alice is a personal account of the artist’s life and work that draws on unpublished papers, letters, and interviews, told from the perspective of Dwight McInvaill, a close family friend, and her family—Anne Tinker (Alice’s great-niece) and Caroline Palmer (Alice’s great-great-niece). The beautifully illustrated hardcover volume includes over 200 paintings, prints, sketches, and photographs, many shared for the first time.
