George Inness (American, 1825 - 1894) Attributed: Autumn Landscape. Watercolor on oval shaped coldpressed paper mounted to mat board, signend lower left, framed.

Born on a farm near Newburgh, New York, George Inness had post-Civil War recognition for paintings that were unique in structure and atmosphere and that turned away from the dramatic, panoramic Hudson River School of painting to a quieter, tonalist expression of poetry in nature. Among the Americans at Barbizon, France, he was the leading painter of that movement of early plein-air landscape painters.

16.5 x 19.5 inches framed; 9.5 x 12.5 inches paper.

Private collection, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.


Very good aged condition; signifiacant amount of foxing in the right half of the paper, as well as a stray mark.
