About the Item

This rare and impressive depiction of a white capped mountain and Indian encampment from the 1870's is a great image for a library or rustic room. Exquisitely painted, Young focused on Western views from Colorado to San Francisco. The exact location of this is still to be determined as it could be a Mountain range north of San Francisco where Young searched for Gold or Colorado - perhaps along the Merced River in Yosemite too. He was known to do landscapes in all of these regions. This scene has strong light and movement with the clouds overhead. It is framed in an exceptional hand carved, high quality Hudson River school frame with 22 Karat gold. This artist had a great career, exhibited many important places including the National academy of design, the Paris Salon, the Pennsylvania Academy of Art and the Denver Art Association. The dimensions given are the total framed dimension and the canvas inside measures 17 x 30 inches.
