About the Item
Painted by Hudson River School artist Alfred Thompson Bricher (1837-1908) , "Scene in the White Mountains" is oil on panel, measures 5.5 x 9.75 inches, and is signed and dated 1864 at the lower right. The work is framed in a period appropriate frame and ready to hang.
Alfred T. Bricher was born to Elizabeth Muir and William Bricher on April 10, 1837, in Portsmouth New Hampshire, though he grew up and attended school in Newburyport, Massachusetts. By 1858, Bricher announced himself a professional painter, though he was mainly self-taught, and set up a studio for himself in Newburyport. Within a year, he had relocated to Boston. Bricher’s subtle and serene style classified him as a premier painter of seascapes and ranked him among such other notable luminists as Martin Johnson Heade (1819-1904)—with whom he shared a studio building in Boston—and John Frederick Kensett (1816-1872). Bricher was known especially for his coastal scenes painted in Massachusetts, Maine, Rhode Island and Long Island between 1870 and 1890.
In 1868, Bricher moved with his new wife to New York City, where he exhibited for the first time at the National Academy of Design. As he gained a foothold in the New York art scene, Bricher exhibited regularly at the National Academy (elected an Associate in 1879), the American Society of Painters in Water Colors (of which he became a member in 1873), and the Brooklyn Art Association. During his lifetime, Bricher also exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, The Art Institute of Chicago, the Boston Athenaeum, and the Boston Art Club, among others. Today, one can see paintings by Bricher at such institutions as the Metropolitan Museum of Art

- Seascape by George Herbert McCord (American, 1848-1909)By George Herbert McCordLocated in New York, NY"Seascape," by Hudson River School artist George Herbert McCord (1848-1909) is oil on canvas and measures 18.07 x 30.13 inches. The work which comes from a private collection in Birmingham, Alabama is signed “G.H. McCord A.N.A.” at the lower left. The work is framed in a beautiful, period appropriate frame, and ready to hang. A member of the second generation of Hudson River School painters, George Herbert McCord is known for his atmospheric landscape and marine paintings which capture a variety of locales and are executed in a variety of media—including oil, pastel, and watercolor. McCord was born in 1848 in New York City, where he lived and worked his entire life. After 1883, he kept an additional studio in Morristown, NJ. McCord traveled throughout North America, painting in the Berkshire, Adirondack and Laurentian mountain ranges, the Hudson River Valley, the Coast of New England, the Upper Mississippi, and Florida, which had become popular among Eastern vacationers. He was among a select group of artists commissioned by the Santa Fe Railroad to paint the Grand Canyon, and also participated in a special painting excursion to the Erie Canal. His travels in Europe were equally expansive, taking him to England, Scotland (having been commissioned by Andrew Carnegie to paint the scenery around his castle there), France, the Netherlands, and Italy. McCord was well-educated, having attended Claverack College amidst the Catskills in Claverack, NY, which provided instruction in classical, French, German, English, music, painting, military, commercial, telegraphic and agricultural studies. He also studied with the accomplished painter and inventor of Morse code, Samuel F.B. Morse, and with the Scottishborn landscape painter, James Fairman. McCord was active in numerous art clubs and institutions in New York, including the National Academy of Design, which elected him an Associate member in 1880, the American Watercolor Society, the Brooklyn Art...Category
