Quarry at New Hope

Known as a frame maker of great skill, Badura was also an artist in his own right. He trained at the Pennsylvania Academy with Daniel Garber and Arthur B. Carles, and was the recipient of the prestigious Cresson travel fellowship.

He moved to Bucks County in 1930 and continued to paint while maintaining a frame shop in New Hope. This painting of a snow-covered quarry was completed for the WPA, the Works Progress Administration.
