About the Item
Signed lower right.
Painter and author James Howard Kunstler lives and works in Washington County, New York (15 miles east of Saratoga Springs). It lies between the Hudson River and the Vermont border and the terrain is a series of foothills and ridges going east toward the Green Mountains. The Battenkill River is a major tributary of the Hudson. It runs from around Manchester, Vermont, down through Greenwich (an old factory village) where Mr. Kunstler lives.
All his paintings are done sur le motif. His primary interest is the human imprint on this particular landscape, especially the industrial ruins of the Hudson Valley.
“We have a hard time with the landscape of our time, with all its odd furnishings and accessories. A lot of it is just plain visually illegible — the commercial highways with their strip malls, power-lines, signage. Van Gogh had peasants in his paintings. We have cars. I feel it’s important to record the scene as it is, to depict what is really there. Generations hence may not believe it was like this."
Mr. Kunstler is also the author of twenty books including “The Geography of Nowhere,” “The Long Emergency,” and the four-book series of “World Made By Hand” novels, set in the post-petroleum American future

- Impressions de New York No. 3Located in Saratoga Springs, NYDavid Solot, a dentist and painter, was born in Falciu (Romania) and settled in Paris in 1928. His art was surrealistic dentally inspired plus portraits and city landscapes. **************************** Translated from an article by Luana Hrisanti Rigot: "In 1956, at the Charlotte Norberg Gallery (Paris), he presented his first personal exhibition, composed of an ensemble of surrealist paintings of professional inspiration (dental elements). Two years later, at Gallery Royale (Rochefort), he exhibits another 50 paintings on the subject. At that time, a decisive event for the painter David Solot was made: a great new-York-born antibiotic producer Lederle Cy learns about his work and contacts him through the US Ambassador to Paris, proposing an advertising contract and buying the reproduction right for 24 of its canvases. A year later, the same company bought the right to print three of its cloths in color. This was the starting point of his international notoriety. In 1959, the American Dental...Category

- LandscapeLocated in Saratoga Springs, NYSigned lower left Landscape and figure painter William Partridge Burpee was born in Rockland, Maine on April 13, 1846.

He exhibited a great deal of interest as a youth in painting and drawing, In the late 1870s, he studied with marine painter, William Bradford (1823-1894).
