Unframed   EXHIBITION HISTORY: National Academy of Design, New York, #368, 1876.                                PROVENANCE:  (record of receipt in San Francisco, May 9th, 1931); reference to the Hacienda Collection (?); to H.R. Huntington, Los Angeles, CA., July 12th, 1960; to Paul Benton, 1961; to Paul Metcalf Art Galleries, Los Angeles, CA.; to Honorable Alfred Gittelson, Beverly Hills, CA., 1962 (by direct descent in family to present day).    NOTE: The left, right and bottom tacking edges are all painted implying that the canvas was reduced marginally to accommodate the frame.  The frame is not original to the canvas and very likely it was introduced to the canvas in the early 1960’s.  It is possible that the stretcher, although second half of the 19th C., is not original to the canvas. If the stretcher is not original to the canvas then the various inscriptions et al. would have no relevance to the painting.   SELECTED ARTIST BIOGRAPHY:  Best known for his landscapes of the Adirondack and Catskill Mountains, Parton was a respected and admired painter in the New York City art scene who exhibited at the annual National Academy of Design for over three decades.  Receiving the coveted Associate National Academician title in 1871 and full National Academician status in 1884, Parton, was an inspired student of Philadelphia painter & watercolorist William Trost Richards.  Parton also exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (P.A.F.A.).  An influential trip to France in 1869 brought awareness of the French Barbizon painters and although the artist explored Tonalism and Impressionism, his work more often reflected the second generation of Hudson School painters with its’ emphasis on poignant light and deep intimate views of Nature.  (Source: Who Was Who in American Art, Vol. III (P – Z), p. 2532).   Estimate:  USD 50,000-70,000
