Provenance:
By descent to the present Private Collection, Toronto
Notes:
Charles Eaton studied at the Art Students League in New York, where in 1882 he met and was encouraged by the important American landscape painter George Inness (1825 - 1894). Although he struggled during his early years in New York, Eaton's work soon garnered attention from fellow artists and collectors. He was most influenced by the treatment of light and atmosphere in works by painters of the French Barbizon School and ultimately became a leading member of the American Tonalist movement. By 1900, already famous for his many paintings of the white pine trees of Connecticut, Eaton was traveling annually to Belgium and Holland, where this untitled work may have its origin.
