Zulema (Zula) Barcons

Zulema (Zula) Barcons immigrated to New York City from Buenos Aires with her family. She began painting at an early age, studying at the National Academy of Design as well as in Paris. In addition to oil paintings, Barcons created drawings and block prints. Barcons was a member of the National Association of Women Artists and exhibited her works at various galleries in New York City. Later in her life, she moved to the White Mountains in New Hampshire. Tragically, much of the artist’s work was destroyed by a house fire.
