Provenance: Vose Galleries, Boston, Massachusetts, April 20, 1972 (label verso); to Private Collection, 1972 until the present Note: For an inn-depth discussion of Lawson's work during this period, this scene in particular, see Boyle, Richard J. 1974. American Impressionism. Boston: New York Graphic Society. p. 224, illus. Boyle places this work among the artist's best: "...but when he returned to America to "see what I can do," he found subject matter which suited him. He painted in and around New York City, in Washington Heights for example, and along the Hudson and Harlem rivers. Like Twatchtman, Lawson painted a great many winter scenes, again tackling the problem of white as a color, but unlike Twatchman's, Lawson's style is fairly "rugged." Harlem River and Melting Snow, Early Spring are painted in the style for which he is best known: the paint is applied as a thick impasto of jewel-like color, referred to by critic F.K. Price as a "palette of crushed jewels." Lawson's work is both sensitive and strong, and he was the only member of the Eight to paint pure landscape; but it is, like the painting of Glackens, an extension of impressionist principles. He always did think of himself as a traditionalist, yet his textual and chromatic variations were more personal and post-impressionalist."

Est: $15,000 - $25,000
Ernest Lawson (Canadian/American, 1873-1939) - Ice House The Artist. Collection of Miss Emilie Vaughn, Forest Hill, Asheville, North Carolina (per inscription verso). Private Collection, Pennsylvania. Provenance The Artist. Collection of Miss Emilie Vaughn, Forest Hill, Asheville, North Carolina (per inscription verso). Private Collection, Pennsylvania. Lot essay A member of The Eight and known for his jewel-like compositions of the Berkshires, Ernest Lawson was born in 1873 in Nova Scotia, before emigrating to the United States in 1888. At 18, the artist moved to New York, where he enrolled at the Arts Students League, studying under John Twachtman, who first introduced him to Impressionism - a trend he would further explore at the Cos Cob summer art school throughout the 1890s. The present work dates from a pivotal moment in the artist's career as 1896 marked Lawson's return to the United States from France, where he had spent several years studying, and even exhibited at the local Salon. With its free, yet precise touch, and careful attention to the dazzling winter light, the present work is a compelling example of Lawson's early Impressionist style, directly driven from the French influence.
