Carl Peters"Gathering Firewood in Snow" Landscape, Figures, Nature, Cape Ann Artist
About the Item
Beautiful estate-stamped Carl Peters in Newcomb Macklin frame.
Born in 1897 in Rochester, New York, to German immigrants, Carl W. Peters found his calling as an artist at an early age. Raised in modest surroundings, his family later moved to a fruit farm, shaping his connection to nature.
Leaving high school to pursue art, Carl studied at the Mechanics Institute while working on the family farm and in an art studio. His artistic talent shone, earning him recognition and prizes. In World War I, his skills as a scenery painter led him to serve as a camouflage artist in France.
Post-war, Carl's artistic journey soared. He garnered accolades, becoming nationally known for his impressionistic landscapes. The Great Depression drove him to government-sponsored mural work, including a celebrated piece at the Fairport Public Library in Rochester.
Amidst life's changes, including the end of his first marriage, Carl found solace and inspiration in two significant places. Winters were spent in Fairport, capturing the essence of frozen creeks and landscapes. Summers brought him to Rockport, Massachusetts, a coastal haven for artists. There, he met Blanche, his second wife and lifelong partner.
In Rockport, Carl's cottage studio became a sanctuary where he painted daily and offered lessons to vacationers. Summers in Rockport, coupled with winters in Fairport, formed the backdrop of his prolific artistic output. The Rockport Art Association holds Peters in high esteem to this day.
Today, Carl W. Peters is celebrated for his captivating winter scenes and nautical views. His paintings, bearing the distinct signature, adorn galleries and museums, including the Fairport Public Library in Rochester. His legacy is one of dedication to art, a connection to nature, and a humble, gentle spirit that touched those who knew him.

- Vermillion at Lee's Ferry ( Plein Air Landscape painting sky blue terracotta)By Jane ChapinLocated in Cody, WYThis is a 'Plein Air" landscape Painting by Jane Chapin as seen in the viewing room exhibition on Silas VON MORISSE GALLERY. “Plein-Air” is the French expression to describe the act of painting in situ within the landscape, capturing the ever changing weather and light with tonal qualities, colour, loose brushwork and softness of form... The practice of “Plein Air Painting” goes back for centuries but was truly made into an art form by the French Impressionists such as Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir who were advocating of plein air painting. Much of their work was done outdoors in the diffuse light of a large white umbrella. Another major proponent of Plein Air was Jean Baptiste Camille Corot whom Claude Monet considered as “The only One Master here”. Corot provides a transition from the sharp academic style that ruled in his day with focus on the natural world and the lyrical expressiveness of one's work. With her "Plein Air Paintings", Jane Chapin is part of one of the largest art movements in history. Her paintings carry human emotions. We can read her moods and feelings with places that carry deep remembrances for the artist that go beyond the descriptive. "My paintings grow from observing and interpretating light as it emerges from, surrounds and reflects on everyday people and scenes. They seek to remind us of the beauty of our common surroundings, regardless of where we are." - Jane Chapin Jane Chapin Painting the Land of the Free...Category
