From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Soren Emil Carlsen (October 19, 1853 – January 2, 1932, New York City, U.S.[2]) was an American Impressionist painter who emigrated to the United States from Denmark.[3] He became known for his still lifes. Later in his career, Carlsen expanded his range of subjects to include landscapes and seascapes as well.[4] During his long career, he won many of the most important honors in American art and was elected to membership in the National Academy of Design. For more than forty years he was also a respected teacher in Chicago, San Francisco and New York. Critical responses Professor William Gerdts wrote extensively of Carlsen and his aesthetic sensibility in his book on American still life painting "Painters of the Humble Truth" and he describes the objects in the paintings as ... often lacking in traditional beauty, What makes the paintings beautiful is Carlsen's sensitivity in arrangement - large shapes are juxtaposed with small flat forms and tall ones, their outlines are often united in refined harmonious curves. and are placed backward and forward on their limited support surface to allow for "breathing room," for slow movement in space.[23] The art historian Richard Boyle also noted Carlsen's craftsmanship, in his book American Impressionism, states: Carlesen's special concern was still life, and his paintings are beautifully crafted and delicate of surface, reminiscent of Whistler and especially Dewing. Carlsen was concerned with "ideal beauty" as well as the beauty inherent in the subject, in texture and color; as in Dewing's works, the placement of the objects on his canvas is extremely important ...[24] The art writer Arthur Edwin Bye featured Carlsen most prominently in his survey of American Still life painting in 1921 and wrote of him: Emil Carlsen is unquestionably the most accomplished master of still-life painting in America today. ... It is evident that Carlsen has lifted his art to a height it has never reached before."[25] In American Impressionism, William Gerdts wrote about Carlsen's transition from still life artist to landscape painter: Carlsen was attracted to the beauties of the rolling hills and interpreted them in soft, pastel tones. Carlsen's landscape mode, however, is more completely of this century, and it developed in the more decorative, somewhat naturalistic manner that characterized later Impressionism.[26] The art collector Duncan Phillips wrote of Carlsen that his ocean scenes had "a certain trance-like mood."

I primarily concentrate on my own art. My art is derived in a variety of ways. I'm a responder. I respond to light, color, design, etc. and I love painting both outdoors on location and in the studio under a controlled environment. I try to convey an idea, mood or just simply a beautiful setting. I'm inspired by a wide variety of subject matter and styles of painting and do not adhere to just one way. My paintings have won numerous awards over the years and have been collected both nationally and internationally. They can be found in three museum collections, the White House Collection and many private collections. I try to photograph each piece as close to the original as I can possibly make it in a general sense trying to convey the colors and light quality. Not all colors reproduce as accurately as others. If when you receive the painting and you feel it is significantly different then what the photos show, please let me know and we can try to work that out.

  • Chauncey Foster Ryder Landscape with Figures Oil Painting 1868-1949 Tonalist
    By Chauncey Foster Ryder
    Located in Chesterfield, NJ
    CHAUNCEY FOSTER RYDER (American, 1868-1949), Pasture Lands oil/canvas signed LR 31.5 x 39.5 image, 40.5 x 48.5 framed A wonderfully subtle tonalist painting by Ryder incorprating a farmer/farmhand probably moving cows about the pastures mid right in the scene. Ryder uses a subtle S design from lower left that zig zags upto the figure and cows. The painting shows Ryder's masterful use of abstract design and technique utilizing textures in his application of paint giving the painting life and interest. Original frame, some craquelure in sky, old surface. Bears Newhouse Galleries, possibly NYC, label verso. The painting hangs in my collection currently and would benefit from a cleaning and new varnish. It is a large museum quality oil painting. Will need white glove shipping as it is too large and the 15% discount for anyone whos saves this painting in their favorites more than covers the cost of shipping. The handling time is listed as 10 days but is dependant on who 1stdibs hires and their schedule to pick up and deliver. 3 -7 weeks is listed in the shipping section. Bio- Chauncey Foster Ryder (29 February 1868 – 18 May 1949)[1] was an early 20th century American Postimpressionist Tonalist landscape painter known for a green-gray palette termed 'Ryder green'. Education and personal life Ryder was born in 1868 in Danbury, Connecticut, but grew up mainly in New Haven.[2][3] He began studying painting as a boy. In his early twenties, he moved to Chicago to attend the Art Institute,[4] then Smith's Academy.[5] After only a year at the latter, he was hired as an instructor.[5] In 1891, he married Mary Dole Keith.[5] In 1901, they moved to Paris, France, where Ryder continued his art education, studying with Jean-Paul Laurens at the Académie Julian. Ryder stayed in France for several years, living in an art colony at Étaples and exhibiting his work at the Paris Salon (1903–1909).[3] He took on occasional students, including American painter William Posey Silva...
