About the Item

Charles Lewis Fussell (American, 1840–1909) Trees in a Meadow Oil on canvas, 12 1/4 x 7 3/4 inches FRAMED: 18 x 13 1/2 inches (approx.) Fussell probably painted this work sometime between 1897 and 1909, when he lived in Media, Pennsylvania. Charles Lewis Fussell was born in West Vincent, Chester County, Pennsylvania, the son of a prominent Quaker physician. He befriended Thomas Eakins (1844-1916) while attending Central High School in Philadelphia. Fussell began to study at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1859 and exhibited there between 1863 and 1905. He also took private art lessons from Peter Frederick Rothermel (1817-1895). He became interested in landscape after a visit to Greeley, Colorado, and after his family settled in Media, Delaware County, Pennsylvania he traveled throughout the surrounding area in search of inspiring scenery. Little is known of Fussell’s activities until he settled in Brooklyn, New York, in 1889, where he lived for the next eight years. Dispirited because he failed to achieve professional success in New York, Fussell returned to the family homestead in Media. For the remaining years of his life he painted detailed watercolor views of the surrounding countryside, especially Ridley Creek.
