About the Item

Four White Chickens, 1911 By. Paul Harney (American, 1850-1915) Signed and Dated Lower Left Unframed: 10.25" x 12" Framed: 17" x 19" Paul Harney (1850-1915) Born in New Orleans on October 21, 1850, he was a landscape, portrait and still-life painter. He studied at the National Academy of Design in New York City, and the Royal Academy in Munich. Among his teachers were Albon Jasper Conant, a portraitist of Abraham Lincoln. Harney settled in Alton, Illinois, across the river from Saint Louis. He taught art classes and served as a professor at Shurtleff College. After twenty years as both faculty and as Shurtleff's Director of Art, he moved to the Missouri side of the river along with his wife Emma Stewart and his three children (his son Eliot had died while still in Alton). He was very active in the Saint Louis artist community, occupying a chair in the Saint Louis School of Fine Art (later called Washington University's Fine Arts Department). He was a founding member of the Saint Louis Artist Guild and a member of the Society of Western Artists. Paul E. Harney died of tuberculosis on November 27, 1915 at age 65.

Bucks On The Madison Bench
Located in Missouri, MO
Bucks On The Madison Bench, 1990 By Larry Zabel (1930-2012) Signed and Dated Lower Right Unframed: 18" x 36" Framed: 26.25" x 44.25" Cowboy artist Larry Zabel was born in Deer Creek, Minnesota, and settled about 70 miles from Yellowstone National Park near McAllister, Montana. Carving and drawing were primary boyhood interests of Zabels. He received an art degree from Long Beach State in California, and spent an additional year at the University of the Americas (formerly Mexico City College). This background led him into a career in technical and commercial illustration, including a decade at the Naval Weapons Center in the California desert, involved in various audio-visual activities. Zabel labeled himself a cowboy artist, as he and his wife moved to Montana in 1988, allowing him to live out a fantasy of Indians, cowboys, and bears. There he was able to paint the life he wanted to live. The subjects of his works include a wide variety of wildlife native to Montana, but his earlier paintings focused on cowboys and Indians. Zabel strove for accurate portrayals, and was most satisfied when the viewer recognized his canyons, ranches, and animals. His acknowledgements and awards include Artist of the Year at the Southern Maryland Wildlife Festival and Best Painting at the Charlie Russell...
