Wonderful landscape of Sierra Mountains in Hudson River School style with Native Americans fishing and their boats along the river by Ransome Gillet Holdredge (American, 18-36-1899), circa 1875. Holdredge was recognized as a great painter during his life. His paintings are in the permanent collections of many museums, particularly those specializing in California artists. We're pleased to offer this majestic landscape of the Sierra Mountains with a river in the foreground with a group of Native Americans around a bonfire with their dug-out canoes beached on the river's shore. The snow-covered Sierras in the background with an old gnarled and scrappy Madrone tree in the foreground, painted with a more saturated paint palette, creates depth and perspective while providing a balanced and pleasing composition.
