George Henry Smillie (1840 - 1921) Stone Wall, Autumn, 1879 Oil on canvas 9 1/2 x 15 inches Signed and dated lower right Provenance: Skinner, Boston, September 19, 2014, Lot 389 The career of George Smillie (1840-1921) followed the arc of nineteenth-century U.S. landscape painting. Trained in the Hudson River School tradition, Smillie successfully adapted to changing U.S. tastes and growing interest in European trends. In the late 1800s, he moved to tonalist paintings full of brushwork and influenced by French Barbizon painting. By the end of his career, he had lightened his palette to produce works similar to those of the U.S. impressionists. Yet in all styles, he was never less than competent, and his tonalist work is among the best produced in the United States. Like many nineteenth-century painters, George Smillie’s artistic training began with the study of printing. His father, James Smillie...

Julien Nemethy (b. 1948) New Orleans Packet – Eclipse, 1999 Oil on canvas Sight: 22 x 28 in.; Frame: 26 x 32 in. Julien Nemethy’s New Orleans Packet – Eclipse is a richly detailed and atmospheric tribute to the golden age of American river travel, rendered with the artist’s characteristic precision and historical sensitivity. Set against a softly illuminated shoreline, the steamboat Eclipse emerges as both a technological marvel and a cultural emblem, its tiered decks, plume of smoke, and bustling activity captured with documentary clarity. Nemethy’s controlled palette—warm umbers, riverine blues, and the glow of late‑day light—infuses the composition with a sense of nostalgia, transforming the vessel into a symbol of movement, commerce, and the romance of the Mississippi. A superb example of the artist’s mature work, the painting demonstrates his ability to merge narrative realism with painterly refinement, offering a scene that is at once historically grounded and visually compelling. Provenance: Private collection, United States. Condition: The canvas presents in excellent overall condition with strong surface integrity and no visible restoration under normal viewing. Notes: Nemethy’s riverboat...
