Description: Here is a beautiful little landscape attributed to renowned American painter Hanson D. Puthuff. It was purchased right here on eBay a few years ago, and the artist's granddaughter made an offer shortly after I listed it, but I pulled it shortly thereafter deciding to keep both it and a companion piece of the same type and genre, hoping for a better time to sell. Well, that time may or may not be here, but I need to get it listed again, so have a look. The piece is indistinctly signed and the signature is difficult to photograph. Hard to tell if the signature was painted or simply scratched in. The piece is an 8" x 10" Oil on board and backed as shown with a plasticky checkerboard pattern. There is no frame or matting. Brief bio courtesy of PeoplePill: Hanson Duvall Puthuff (August 21, 1875 – May 12, 1972) was a landscape painter and muralist, born in Waverly, Missouri. Puthuff studied at the Art Institute of Chicago before moving to Colorado in 1889 to study at University of Denver Art School. He traveled to Los Angeles in 1903 and for 23 years worked as a commercial artist painting billboards while painting landscapes in his leisure. In 1926, he abandoned commercial art and devote full-time to fine art and exhibitions. He is nationally famous for his lyric interpretations of the Southern California deserts. Puthuff died in Corona del Mar on May 12, 1972.Puthuff was one of the cofounders of the California Art Club and the Laguna Beach Art Association. He won awards in 1909 from the Alaska–Yukon–Pacific Exposition, a bronze medal at the Paris Salon in 1914, and two silver medals from the Panama-California Exposition in 1915. His works are exhibited in, among other places, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Laguna Art Museum, and Bowers Museum. Many of his works are also cataloged in the Smithsonian American Art Museum art inventory. In 2007, the Pasadena Museum of California Art featured California Colors: Hanson Puthuff, the first solo museum exhibition of his work. In conjunction with the exhibit, the Museum republished the artist's autobiography. ========================= This is a NO RETURN item.
