About the Item
William Samuel Horton (American, 1865–1936)
The End of the Day
Oil on canvas laid down on board
25 x 30 in. (63.5 x 76.2 cm)
In The End of the Day, American Impressionist William Samuel Horton captures the poetic stillness of twilight with a masterful command of light and atmosphere. Broad, confident brushwork and a rich tonal palette lend the scene a luminous intensity, as the fading sun dissolves into dusk. This contemplative landscape reflects Horton’s signature ability to balance bold impressionistic technique with a refined sense of mood and place.
Horton studied in Paris at the Académie Julian and exhibited at the Paris Salon, earning critical acclaim in both Europe and the United States. Strongly influenced by the French Impressionists—particularly Claude Monet—he developed a distinctive transatlantic style marked by vibrant colour, dramatic skies, and an emotional engagement with the natural world. His works are held in numerous public and private collections.

William Samuel Horton
A landscape painter, William Horton lived and worked primarily in Paris where he was a member of the Societe Moderne, the Societe Internationale, and the Salon d'Automne. He was a wealthy man and a friend of artists who became famous such as Monet and Degas and other Impressionists. He 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. Between 1926 and 1928, on a return to the United States, he did a series of views of New York skyscrapers because he was inspired by their appearance of establishing the position of human beings on the earth.

"None Such Days"
By Joseph Barrett
Located in Lambertville, NJ
Illustrated in "Joseph Barrett, The Prime Years 1970s - 1990s", pg. 14 #016
Jim’s of Lambertville is proud to offer this artwork by:
Joseph Barrett (1936 – )
Joseph Barrett was born in Midland, North Carolina, in 1936 and studied at the Massachusetts College of Art in Boston and at the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. Barrett, now of Lahaska, Pennsylvania, has been painting his entire adult life. His favorite subjects include the landscape surrounding New Hope and many local landmarks often encompassing figures into his compositions. Barrett utilizes a heavy impasto and his palette bears similarities to that of Fern Coppedge and George Sotter. Barrett’s paintings are always found in unique and somewhat charming handmade frames designed by the artist and finished in metal leaf.
A living contemporary of the no longer living “New Hope School” impressionist painters, Joseph Barrett resides outside of New Hope above his old-fashioned antique shop and studio. Entering Barrett’s shop is like taking a step back in time. Inside this cluttered and dusty haven of treasures from the past, is a studio spanning only four by eight feet. This little studio, containing cans of old brushes and hundreds of used paint tubes...
