About the Item

A wonderful nocturnal pastel landscape of Gstaad, Switzerland in partial moonlight by American artist William Samuel Horton (1865-1936). Horton was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and was raised in North Dakota. His first art-related job was as an illustrator for Northwest Magazine. Disinherited by his family because of his commitment to art, he studied first at the Art Institute of Chicago and then at the Art Student's League and the National Academy of Design in New York. He married in 1892, and the couple went to Paris where he enrolled in the Academy Julian and where they lived the remainder of their lives, becoming very active in the American-French art community and exhibiting regularly in the salons.He was a wealthy man and a friend of artists who became famous such as Monet and Degas and other Impressionists. Pastel on paper, signed lower right, and housed under glass in a molded giltwood frame. Dimensions: 18 in H x 24 in W, sight; 24.75 in H x 30.5 in W x 2 in D.
