Artist: Abraham Rattner, American, 1893 - 1978

 

From his experiences in WW I, Rattner had vivid memories of the use of flashes of aerial lights. As Germany incessantly bombed England during WW II, Rattner responded with paintings that expressed his empathy for the terror faced by the British people.

"Mother Meres" began life as Amelia Petzold Meres, born in Germany in 1845 before emigrating to the United States with her family at age 5. She moved to Tarpon Springs with her husband in 1882 and ran the Ferns Hotel on what is now the southwest corner of Tarpon and Pinellas Avenues.

 

The mural reflects Meres' love of plants and nature, depicting her holding a bouquet of flowers and watching over the site of her garden and her community.
