Hugh Bolton Jones Art
American, 1848-1927
A Baltimore, Maryland native, Hugh Bolton Jones studied art at the Maryland Institute and in 1865, he studied under Horace W. Robbins in New York. Between 1865 and 1876, Jones painted landscapes of the Eastern United States in the Hudson River School tradition. He began exhibiting his work at the National Academy of Design in 1867, and became an associate member of the National Academy in 1893. He was also a member of the American Water Color Society, the National Arts Club and the National Institute of Arts and Letters. Jones won numerous awards for his work and his paintings are included in the collections of the Brooklyn Museum, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Corcoran Gallery of Art and Pennsylvania Academy of Fine art.
Between 1876 and 1880, Hugh Bolton Jones and his brother, artist Francis Coates Jones, traveled throughout Europe with their friend and fellow artist, Thomas Hovenden. Hugh Bolton Jones joined the artists colony in Pont-Aven, Brittany, France where he was influenced by traditional European landscape painting. Many of his works from this time period reflect the Barbizon style and exhibit a tonal color palette and moody effects of light.
One of the paintings completed during his sojourn to France was Winter Landscape with Sunset completed in 1876. A painting dated 1876 with similar composition and the same size is in the collection of the Maryland Historical Society. It depicts a man and a woman carrying out their daily labor along the snow covered banks of a river. A pastel sunset illuminates the sky above.
Hugh Bolton Jones' maturity as an artist is clear in his dramatic use of light and dark and the subtle way he has rendered the details of the landscape.(Biography provided by Lincoln Glenn)
