About the Item

This vintage 1940s original oil painting beautifully captures the essence of Boulder Canyon, showcasing the stunning Colorado landscape with majestic mountains and vibrant Aspen trees in their autumnal glory. The piece highlights the rich fall colors of gold, orange, and red as the Aspen leaves turn, reflecting the serene beauty of Colorado's mountainous terrain. Presented in a custom gold frame, the outer dimensions are 25 ¼ x 21 ¼ x 1 ½ inches, while the image size itself measures 22 ¼ x 18 ¼ inches. About the Artist: Irene Fowler (1884-1969) was an influential figure in the development of Denver's art scene. Born in Illinois, she moved to Denver where she became a public school teacher and a founding member of the Denver Artist’s Guild (now the Colorado Artist’s Guild). Throughout her career, Fowler painted stunning landscapes in oil and watercolor, most often working en plein air to capture the natural beauty of Colorado's diverse scenery. Known for her landscapes of Colorado, Fowler expertly depicted the unique features of the region: towering mountains, quaking Aspen trees, and rustic mining towns. Her work is marked by an exceptional understanding of the thin mountain air and luminous sunshine that make Colorado’s landscape so striking. Fowler was a prominent figure in the Denver art community, exhibiting her works at major venues such as the Schlier Gallery, Chappell House, the University Club, and the Broadmoor Art Gallery in Colorado Springs. She also served as the president of the Denver Artist’s Guild from 1950-1952. Her paintings are held in collections at institutions such as the Colorado History Museum, and her legacy continues to be celebrated in the art world. This Boulder Canyon painting is a striking example of Irene Fowler’s deep connection to the Colorado landscape, and it would make a timeless addition to any collection of Western American art. ©David Cook Galleries, LLC
