Description:
|
|
Even thirty years after first experiencing the majestic landscape of New Mexico with fellow artist Bert Geer Phillips, Blumenschein continued to paint at least two other versions of this view of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range during the mid-1920s. With brilliant fragments of color and dark, linear shadows, Untitled (Mountain Wood Gatherers) evokes the experience of standing before a stained-glass window rather than a painted canvas. Blumenschein skillfully underscores the connection between his human subjects and the landscape by clothing the figures in red cloaks that mimic the surrounding rocks.
