Description: Oil on board, Signed Lower Left, Measures ( 6 x 9 inches) w/frame ( 8.5 x 11.5 inches). Excellent condition for its age. Origional gold leaf frame worn, but very attractive.Martin forged a career that spanned the Hudson River School style to more of a plein-air style that approximated impressionism. Popular with the earlier critics, Martin was praised with hyperbole: "his finest canvases looked as if no one but God and he had ever seen the places pictured" (Sherman, 1917, p. 4) but was justly allocated a respectful place in the pantheon of American landscape painters. In the 1860s and 1870s he traveled often to the White Mountains and other parts of New England, making sketches and improving his art. In 1865 he opened his studio at the 10th Street Studio Building in New York City, which he kept until 1882. He was forced by circumstances to try illustrations and worked for Scribner’s Magazine and Century for a short time.He exhibited at the National Academy of Design and the Brooklyn Art Association from 1861 to 1894. His art did not gain recognition until years after his death He died deeply in debt and virtually unrecognized.Buyer is responsible for arranging for shipping and payment for shipping.
