This depicts her apartment while she was on travel.
I have a few other original drawings from Elsa West in my Pricetronic store (others are not included in this sale).
I can combine ship in a tube for multiple items purchased.
What I know about Elsa West is that she was a recognized artist for Maine (ME) landscape and architecture. Her work was used for several postcard artwork in the 1920-1950's. Her works are listed in the Maine Historical Society .
Her original drawings do not come up very often, they look to be her early works when she was in College or just out of College around 1917-1920.
Elsa West was familiar with Griffin Studios, Stroudwater ME (one of her drawings is listed on my Pricetronic store of Griffin Studios - not included in this sale). Walter Griffin's worked from Stroudwater ME from 1918-1922. Elsa West's drawings are in the style of some of his pencil drawings. Walter Parsons Shaw Griffin
(1861–1935) was an American painter.
Griffin was born in Portland, Maine, where his father carved ship figureheads. In 1877 he entered the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston as a scholarship student, and in 1885 entered the Academy school in New York City, where he remained through 1887 while teaching at the Ethical Culture Society. He moved to Paris in 1887, where he studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and exhibited at the Salon of 1889. In 1890 he settled in Fleury, where he traveled and painted in the Barbizon area. By the late 1890s, he opened the Walter Griffin's Summer Painting School in Quebec City, Canada, and in 1898 began teaching at the Art Society of Hartford, Connecticut, moving to Old Lyme, Connecticut, in 1904.
He was the husband of British-born American journalist and photographer Lillian Baynes Griffin (1871–1916). After his divorce in 1908, he passed the years 1909–1918 in Europe, returning to Portland, Maines Stroudwater neighborhood from 1918 until 1922, then living in France from 1923 to 1933. In 1933 he returned to Portland, where he lived until his death.
