Frederick Taylor Inventory Project

Some 40 years ago, advancing in age, and suffering from both arthritis and a most painful hip, one that was in need of surgery, Fred recognized that his Montreal storage facility located near Dorval airport was increasingly inconvenient. In Montreal from San Miguel, Fred stayed at the University Club of Montreal and later at an apartment hotel on Crescent Street, between De Maisonneuve and Ste Catherine streets. Somewhat miserly, Fred had habitually taken 3 buses to get to the storage facility. Fred asked Alan Klinkhoff if perhaps he might see if more convenient storage could be found. Alan was living then in Montreal’s Gleneagles Apartments, a baronial looking building on Cote des Neiges and one that Fred had in fact painted in May 1947 (Frederick B. Taylor Inventory no. 946. May 1947, Gleneagles from Mt. Royal. 32 x 40 in. Oil on canvas. Acquired by Gleneagles).

It is our intention to make a visual inventory of Frederick Taylor’s paintings accessible online for free to an interested public, including collectors and scholars. We invite all owners of paintings by Frederick Taylor to submit images and details for inclusion.

Please complete the submission form with as much information as possible. In order to process your request, we need some information about you and your painting. By submitting images of your painting, you are authorizing Alan Klinkhoff Gallery to publish it online as part of the visual inventory.
