Sydney M. Laurence Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, Illustrator, b. 1865 - d. 1940

Sydney Laurence, born in New York in 1865, gained fame for his paintings of Alaska, his adoptive home in later years. In his youth, Laurence attended the Peekskill Military Academy, but showed a proclivity for painting. In 1887, the National Academy in New York began exhibiting art by Sydney Laurence. However, he left his home in 1889, traveling extensively for 15 years.

Sydney Laurence's art draws inspiration from French Impressionism and tonalism, an American art movement characterized by the use of a single, dominant color and glazed finishes. In 1903, Laurence moved to Alaska, working as a prospector and painter. Indeed, the subject of Sydney Laurence's paintings became almost exclusively Mount McKinley and the Alaskan frontier. Native Alaskans and tourists alike enthusiastically bought prints for sale by Sydney Laurence, who remains a popular and respected figure. Art and nature enthusiasts can find collectible landscape paintings for sale at Invaluable.

        Est: $300 - $500

        Presented in this lot is a Sydney Laurence Northern Pacific Railway Travel Poster Lithograph of "The New Yakima Gateway to Rainier National Park, circa mid-century. Sydney Mortimer Laurence was an American Romantic landscape painter and Alaska's most prominent of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Laurence forged a uniquely personal style by applying the tonalist techniques he had learned in New York and Europe to the wilderness of the North. He, more than any other artist, defined for Alaskans and others the image of Alaska as "the last frontier." The Northern Pacific Railway was a transcontinental railroad that operated across the northern tier of the western United States, from Minnesota to the Pacific Northwest. It was approved by Congress in 1864 and given nearly 40 million acres of land grants, which it used to raise money in Europe for construction with the goals of connecting the Great Lakes with Puget Sound on the Pacific, opening vast new lands for farming, ranching, lumbering and mining, and linking Washington and Oregon to the rest of the country. This professionally mounted matted lithograph is in nice condition, slight creasing noted along vertical borders, rustic wood frame is in good condition. Visible art measures 28.5"W x 38.5"L, frame is 32.75"Wx 42.75"L x .5"D, weight 9lb, 8oz.
