I believe this painting is by the following artist and could be one of his earlier works before moving to Alaska from England.
ARTIST: SYDNEY MORTIMER LAURENCE
This may be an oil painting by the artist Sydney Laurence, known for his depictions of the Alaskan wilderness.
Here's some information about the artist:
Sydney Mortimer Laurence: (1865-1940) was a New York-born painter who became famous for his paintings of Alaska.
His work was inspired by French Impressionism and Tonalism, an American art movement that uses a single, dominant color and glazed finishes.
His paintings often depicted Mount McKinley and the Alaskan frontier.
He exhibited regularly by the late 1880s. He and his wife traveled to England, settling in 1889 in the English artists' colony of St. Ives, Cornwall from 1889 to 1898. Over the next decade, he exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists and was included in the Paris Salon in 1890, 1894, and 1895, winning an award in 1894.
Laurence came to Alaska in 1903.
Laurence's paintings can fetch high prices at auction, with some selling for over $200,000.
ASKING $250 obo.
