Landscape with Trees and Clouds

1912
20th Century
24 in. x 30 in.

Henry Bill Selden, (January 24, 1886–February 1934)

Medium and Support: oil on canvas

Credit Line: Florence Griswold Museum, Gift of The Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and Insurance Company

Accession Number: 2002.1.121

A low horizon with a field in the immediate foreground and a tree-lined hillside in the middle distance give way to a blue sky filled with voluminous clouds. The influence of the cloud pictures of Charles Davis and Henry Ward Ranger, done at about this same time seem to be at work here, judging from the compositional and painterly similarities.
