About the Item
Jim’s of Lambertville is proud to offer this artwork by:
Charles Warren Eaton (1857 – 1937)
A longtime resident of Bloomfield, New Jersey, Charles Warren Eaton was widely known in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries for his tonalist landscapes of New Jersey. Born in Albany, New York, he moved to New York City around 1879 to pursue his goal of becoming an artist. He enrolled in classes at the National Academy of Design and the Art Students League where he studied under J. Carroll Beckwith. By the time he was twenty-five, his paintings were accepted for exhibition at the National Academy where renowned English writer, Oscar Wilde, purchased one. Eaton achieved critical success by 1910. He moved to Bloomfield in 1888 and lived there until this death.
In 1889, renowned artist, George Inness, from nearby Montclair, New Jersey visited the New York studio of Eaton. He was taken with Eaton’s talent and a close mentoring relationship began, which lasted until Inness’s death in 1894.
Early in his career, Eaton became known for his scenes of the setting late afternoon sun and moonlit nocturnes over foreboding landscapes.
Frequent trips to Europe resulted in many views painted of Bruges in Belgium, Lake Como, Italy, Holland, and France. He also began to concentrate on the white pine forests of central New England which became the subject matter for some of his most famous paintings.
Some of the many institutions and salons where his paintings were exhibited include the National Academy of Design, the Boston Art Club, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Royal Academy in London, the St. Louis Exposition, the Buenos Aires Exposition, the Paris Gallery of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Carnegie Institute. He garnered many medals and awards internationally throughout his long career.

Charles Warren Eaton
Born in Albany, New York, Charles Eaton became a Tonalist landscape painter much influenced by George Inness. His intimate, moody landscapes were known for subdued golden-brown hues and muted tonal harmonies, and the subject was often the landscape in late autumn, evening time, or winter. These paintings were groundbreaking because they were relatively small in scale and intimate countryside views, which was a departure from the generally popular panoramic, romanticized views of Hudson River School painters. In 1879, he enrolled at the National Academy of Design in New York City and then studied figure painting at the Art Students League with J. Carroll Beckwith. He became a close associate with Leonard Ochtman and Ben Foster, both Tonalist painters, and traveled with them to France and England where each formed their own style in reaction to the pervasive Barbizon style of rural landscape and genre painting. They also visited Holland where Eaton painted many canal scenes. He continued to travel rather extensively, visiting Glacier National Park in Montana in 1921 and returned to Italy in 1910 to 1912 and in 1923. A reclusive bachelor, Eaton maintained a studio in New York City, although he lived in Bloomfield, New Jersey. He painted many snow scenes in white and grey purple tones, but by 1900 was focusing more on the theme of the Berkshire pine forests of New York State. His work got less and less attention as modernism became pervasive, and he became increasingly alone and introspective. He won many prizes including ones at the Salmagundi Club, the Philadelphia Art Club and the 1904 St. Louis Exposition. He was a founding member of the Lotus and Salmagundi Clubs.
