Known as Polly, Ethel Thayer was active as a portrait, landscape and
still-life painter in Boston in the early 20th century, working at
Fenway Studios from 1932 to 1936. Her mediums were watercolor,
pastel, and lithography, and her style began as Boston School academic
and changed to progressive modern, many of them naive in the tradition
of Henri Rousseau.
Thayer was born in Boston, the daughter of
Professor Ezra Thayer, who was Dean of the Harvard Law School.
