Francis Speight and Sarah Blakeslee Gallery
Francis Speight and his wife Sarah Blakeslee are two of the most important artists who lived and worked in North
Carolina during the 20th century. Speight was born in Bertie County, North Carolina, and Blakeslee grew up in
Washington, D.C. They studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and embraced the school’s academic realism.
Speight taught painting and drawing at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts from 1925 until 1961. In 1936 he
married Blakeslee, who had been one of his students at the academy’s Country School at Chester Springs, Pennsylvania.
In 1961 they moved to Greenville, North Carolina, where Francis became the artist-in-residence at East Carolina
College. Sarah painted and taught adult classes at local art centers.
The Greenville Museum of Art is pleased to honor these two important American painters who called Greenville, North
Carolina, home for so many years.
