About the Item

JOHN JOSEPH ENNEKING American, 1841-1916 Landscape with Cows and Sheep under Stormy Skies Oil on canvas Signed lower right "Enneking '05" Item # 109KTU28S A work that captures the complex influences that developed Enneking's distinctive style, this expressive scene is dense with atmosphere as a storm moves towards the herd of grazing sheep from the distance. The rolling hills are speckled with his chaotic and complex heavy impasto brushwork with rich layered pigments that expand the eye out and beyond the hills to the edges of the distant water and beyond. An almost unnatural light falls from the heavens to light the sheep and cattle at the focal point of the scene, an effect that highlights the juxtaposition between the high-chroma rich saturation of the ground against a sky of looming clouds almost devoid of color. Executed in oil on canvas, the work remains hung on its original stretchers and is signed in the lower right corner "Ennecking". It is housed in a contemporary frame.
