Lot 83 Chauncey Foster Ryder American, 1868-1949 Misty Morning Signed Chauncey F. Ryder (lr) Oil on canvasboard 15 3/4 x 19 3/4 inches Provenance: Private collection Exhibited: New York, Spanierman Gallery, LLC, John Francis Murphy and Chauncey Foster Ryder: Among Tonalism's Many Faces , May 6-Jun. 5, 2011 Born in Danbury, Connecticut, Ryder studied in Chicago and Paris, showing annually from 1901 to 1909 at the Paris Salon. After returning to the United States in 1907, he adopted a Tonalist approach. He was one of the few artists working in this vein to work directly from his subjects. Often he depicted the landscape near his summer home in Wilton, New Hampshire. There, using a palette knife and applying his paint in broken and patchwork strokes, he interpreted the scenery before him through a poetic lens. He honed it to a midway point between a realist and an idyllic image, conveying a "feeling that nature is imperturbable and everlasting-far above the tribulations of a 'civilized' world-prepared to give restless strength a much-needed stability."
