Categories:
Framed oil on canvas. Sight: 13x24”. Overall: 23x33.5”. Partial AskArt Bio: Norton Bush was born in Rochester, New York and took his first art instruction from James Harris, a local artist. He also studied with Jasper Cropsey in New York City and associated with Frederic Church, both Hudson River School painters whose style continued to influence Bush. Many of his paintings were done with the goal of inspiring the viewer with the overwhelming aspects of nature and the diminished relative position of human beings. In 1853, when Bush first traveled to California, he traveled through the Isthmus of Panama and reportedly through the jungles of Nicaragua. William Ralston was a San Francisco banker and paid Bush to paint scenes related to Ralston's business interests in Central America. For Henry Meiggs, Bush did paintings depicting a railroad whose building he had overseen in the Andes Mountains. From 1878 to 1880, Bush was the Director of the San Francisco Art Association. He also became art director of the California section of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. However, this effort was overly taxing on his health, and he had a fatal heart attack in Oakland on April 24, 1894. Sources: Peter Falk, "Who Was Who in American Art". Edan Hughes, "Artists in California, 1786-1940". Michael David Zellman, "300 Years of American Art". Auction Record: $58,500. Estimate: $15,000-$25,000.
