Henry Pember Smith, Landscape With Lake
This fine 19th-century rural landscape by Henry Pember Smith (1854-1907) is an absolute triumph in its rendering of light. The artist has opted for a time of the day when the sun is immediately above and emerging between a series of dense clouds. Several fruit trees seem to sit within interesting pools of shadows.
Towards the middle of the scene, the earth almost glows as a wide channel of light extends from the foreground towards a nearby lake. The lake itself is illuminated and reflecting a distant copse.
Smith was born in Connecticut and is highly regarded for his landscapes and pastoral scenes. Along with many of his contemporaries, he met a growing need for idealised visions of rural American life, against the reality of increasing urbanisation.
His works are held in various museums and galleries, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of the City of New York, the Brooklyn Art Museum, and the Butler Institute of American Art.
During his lifetime, he exhibited regularly with venues including the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Art Institute of Chicago, and with the Brooklyn Arts Association.

Terms and conditions
Please be assured that we inspect every painting, drawing or print to check for issues relating to its condition during its time here with us. When we notice a fault or potential problem, we will note this down on the item's condition report, which can be found within each listing. We take various steps to ensure that your artwork will stand the test of time but we're unable to offer any warranties or guarantees as we're just one custodian in a potentially long line of previous owners.
Our inspections include a check for any signs of woodworm, historic or otherwise, as this is not unusual in antique frames or stretchers. If we discover any small holes, we treat the wood with a solution which states that "its deep penetration ensures effective protection for many years and prevents re-infestation". With this in mind, it's very unlikely that any future issues will occur, especially given that the wood may also have been treated by previous owners. However, as mentioned above, we are unable to provide any warranties or guarantees - just be assured that we care.
Also, many of the paintings include hanging equipment, namely wire or string. Sometimes this is already present when we purchase an item so we check to see if it's been attached correctly. However, we can't test the durability of this equipment as many of the paintings are sold quickly. So please do seek any advice if you're unsure how to hang your paintings correctly, especially if they're heavy, and do check on them from time to time.
If you have any questions at all, please just ask.
