Robert Newman (1827-1912) Mount Hood Oil Painting
Featured in this lot is an oil painting of Mount Hood by artist Robert Newman who was born in 1827 and died in 1912. The painting features a wonderfully and professionally crafted oil on canvas construction. The painting is a scene of Mount Hood, the largest peak in Oregon, and a active volcano with a lake at the base of the peak with wooded area around the mountain. The painting is marked on the back 'R. Newman' and 'Mount Hood.' Robert Loftin Newman (November 10, 1827 – March 31, 1912) was an American painter and stained glass designer. He specialized in oil on canvas as his medium. He is sometimes associated with Albert Pinkham Ryder as a painter of mood. His works include Good Samaritan, painted in 1886, Flight into Egypt, Harvest Time, Sailboat Manned by Two Men, and The Bather. The condition of this painting is good with one flaw where someone took a sharpie and wrote on the back of the canvas and is slightly bleeding through but otherwise shows good overall condition. The measurements of this framed oil painting are 23" x 33" and the visible artwork measures 19 1/2" x 29 1/2".*
