Eliot Clark
Wind River - Wyoming

About the Item

Wind River- Wyoming by Eliot Clark (1883-1980) Oil on canvas, linen relined 14 x 20 inches unframed (35.56 x 50.8 cm) 18 ¼ x 24 inches framed (46.355 x 60.96 cm) Estate stamp lower right Description: Eliot Clark is the son of the prominent landscape painter Walter Clark, and was significantly influenced by his father’s attention to nature early on in his own artistic career. After extensively traveling through Europe and studying at the Art Students League, Clark opened a studio in New York from which he established himself as a prominent Tonalist painter and oversaw the National Academy of Design as its president in the 1950s. His influence as a landscape and impressionist painter in the mid-twentieth century was sought after, and his work is contained in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian, the Parrish Art Museum, and the Weisman Art Museum. In his lifetime, he was awarded the Hallgarten Prize at the National Academy of Design. His landscape paintings emphasize a spiritual and personal communion with nature. “Wind River - Wyoming” is one such canvas that emphasizes individual connection with open nature. His expansive landscapes particularly add a quality of mass and overwhelming spaciousness to his work. This oil painting particularly is very moody and showcases a barren, wintery scene on a cloudy day. Clark takes an impressionist approach in modeling his piece. His color choices, composition, and devotion to en plein air shape this work's dark and temperamental tone.
