About the Item
“Aspen, Craig Meadows in Spring” is a captivating circa 1920 original oil painting by noted American landscape artist Albert Stokes Bancroft (1862–1946). This beautifully rendered work depicts the rolling meadows and stately aspen trees of Craig Meadows, set at the base of the Platte River Mountains near Bailey, Colorado. Painted during springtime, the composition radiates with fresh greens, warm earth tones, and luminous light, perfectly capturing the renewal and vitality of the Colorado wilderness.
Bancroft’s refined brushwork and sensitive handling of color bring depth and atmosphere to the scene, immersing the viewer in the tranquil beauty of the Rocky Mountain landscape. His work is celebrated for its ability to combine naturalistic detail with painterly expression, making this painting a striking example of early 20th-century American Western landscape art.
The oil on canvas is signed in the lower right corner, with an additional signature and title on the reverse, further confirming its authenticity. It is housed in a vintage frame that enhances its timeless character.
Provenance: Formerly part of the Kendrick Bellamy Company, Denver.
An exceptional choice for collectors of Colorado art, Rocky Mountain landscapes, or early American painting, Aspen, Craig Meadows in Spring embodies the enduring beauty of the Western frontier.

Boulder Canyon, Colorado Autumn Landscape Oil Painting by Irene Fowler, 1940s
By Irene Fowler
Located in Denver, CO
This vintage 1940s oil on canvas painting by Colorado artist Irene Fowler (1884–1969) beautifully captures the vibrant autumn landscape of Boulder Canyon. With a masterful eye for color and atmosphere, Fowler presents majestic mountain peaks framed by glowing Aspen trees in their fall brilliance, their leaves shimmering in radiant shades of gold, orange, and red. The scene reflects both the serenity and dramatic character of Colorado’s rugged wilderness, offering a timeless vision of the Rocky Mountains.
Fowler’s keen observation of light and painterly brushwork bring the landscape vividly to life, evoking the crisp mountain air and golden glow of a Colorado autumn day. Her ability to balance natural grandeur with intimate detail makes this work an exceptional example of early 20th-century Western American painting.
The painting itself measures 22 ¼ x 18 ¼ inches and is presented in a custom gilded frame with outer dimensions of 25 ¼ x 21 ¼ x 1 ½ inches, enhancing its elegance and making it ready for display. Signed by the artist in the lower right corner.

"Spring Aspen, " Oil Painting
By Stephen Day
Located in Denver, CO
Stephen Day's (US based) "Spring Aspen" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts a forest of Pine and Aspen trees coming to life with new green buds of leaves and the thicket of the forest floor beginning to grow.
Stephen Day was born in Sheridan, Wyoming, and, while growing up he lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Aspen Colorado, and Durango, Colorado. He always felt the wonderfully unique beauty of the west but until he became an artist he really didn't know how to fully respond to that beauty.
Day is now a full-time artist living in Taos, New Mexico. Working mainly in oil he paints various subjects from life but the landscape is his first love. He says of his working philosophy, "I paint almost exclusively from life trying to capture the feeling and the mood of the subject before me. This work philosophy forces me to paint quickly to get a spontaneous and fresh response, because everything around us (including ourselves) is in a constant state of change." Day frequently paints on location and uses these smaller paintings to create larger studio paintings.
Artist's Background:
1976 - Bachelor of Arts Degree, McMurry College, Abilene, Texas
1980 - Master's Degree, Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Texas
Studied at the Art Students League of Denver with Bruce Cody...
