About the Item
Jim’s of Lambertville Fine Art Gallery is proud to present this piece by Charles Morris Young (1869 – 1964).
Born in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Charles Morris Young lived most of his life in Radnor. He was recognized as a pioneer in creating American Impressionist landscapes, especially snow scenes. Young is also known for his golfing, equestrian, and hunting scenes. He studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts with Thomas Eakins, Robert Vonnoh, and Thomas Anschutz. In 1897, Young set off to Paris with his wife, for continued art studies at the Academie Colarossi. Living for a time in Giverny, he became acquainted with Claude Monet, recalling how in moments of frustration Monet would throw paintings into his lily pond, to be fished out later by members of his family. Young was also friendly with Whistler, Mary Cassatt, John Singer Sargent, Henri Matisse, and Gertrude Stein.
Young was an associate of the National Academy of Design and a member of the Philadelphia Art Club. He remained remarkably active in his later years, still exhibiting at the National Academy of Design at the age of 87. At age 90, he was still painting and playing eighteen holes of golf. In 1962, at age 93, Young tragically watched many of his best paintings go up in flames during a destructive house fire. As a result, he simply began to recreate them. Shortly before his death at 95, Young gleefully stated, “Titian couldn’t paint after 91. Not one of my contemporaries is still producing.”
Young has one of the longest exhibition records in the history of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts spanning more than fifty years. He also exhibited at the National Academy of Design; the Art Institute of Chicago; the Boston Art Club; the St. Louis Exposition (1904 Silver Medal); the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo (1901 award); the Philadelphia Art Club (1908 Gold Medal); the Carnegie Institute (1910 prize); the Buenos Aires Exposition; the Corcoran Gallery Biennials; and the Panama-Pacific Exposition in San Francisco (1915 Gold Medal). Young’s work is in the permanent collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art; the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts; the Corcoran Gallery of Art; the Reading Museum; the Allentown Art Museum; and the Sandhurst Military Academy in England.

William L. Lathrop (1859-1938)
Deemed “Father of the New Hope Art Colony”, William Langson Lathrop was born in Warren, Illinois. He was largely self-taught, having only studied briefly with William Merritt Chase in 1887, at the Art Students League. Lathrop first moved east in the early 1880s, and took a job at the Photoengraving Company in New York City. While there, he befriended a fellow employee, Henry B. Snell. The two men became lifelong friends and ultimately, both would be considered central figures among the New Hope Art Colony.
Lathrop's early years as an artist were ones of continuing struggle. His efforts to break through in the New York art scene seemed futile, so he scraped enough money together to travel to Europe with Henry Snell in1888. There he met and married an English girl, Annie Burt. Upon returning to New York, he tried his hand at etching, making tools from old saw blades...
