    Est: $10,000 - $15,000

    MAX WEYL AMERICAN, 1837-1914 LITTLE RIVER FROM ROSSLYN, 1912 Oil on canvas Framed; lower right signed: Max Weyl and on the stretcher titled in pencil "Little River from Rosslyn" The painting depicts a view from the Rosslyn, Va., shoreline, across from Washington, D.C., of what was then commonly referred to as Little River, the channel between Roosevelt Island and the Virginia shore, looking south. The land extending into the river in the distance appears to be what is known as Little Island, the smaller island located immediately southwest of Roosevelt Island. On the horizon is a view of Long Bridge, at that time called the Railroad Bridge. Catalogue note: Born in Germany, Max Weyl came to Washington, D.C. in 1861 and established a small jewelry business on 7th Street. He developed an interest in landscape painting and began displaying his work in the windows of his shop. In 1870, Weyl launched his artistic career when he sold a painting to Samuel H. Kauffmann, president of the board of the Corcoran Gallery and publisher of the Evening Star newspaper. Weyl travelled to Europe in 1879, where he was influenced by the French Barbizon school and the Impressionist movement. Upon his return to Washington, D.C., Weyl helped form the Washington Landscape School, encouraging the Barbizon practice of painting "plein-air" among one's natural surroundings. He also became a member of the Society of Washington Artists, winning prizes in 1901 and 1904, and was honored with a solo exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery in 1907. First ladies Frances Cleveland and Edith Wilson both purchased paintings by Weyl, and his work is in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian American Art Museum and Georgetown University, among others. To honor what would have been Weyl's 100th birthday, the Washington Star published an article with the quote: "To Max Weyl no place was more beautiful and more paintable than Washington and its environs. He was never eager to travel or explore. The Potomac flats, Rock Creek valley, the fields beyond the city limits contained for him all the elements essential to landscape painting."

Artist Bio: Max Weyl was born in Muhlen-am-Neckar, Germany and came to Williamsport, Pennsylvania in 1853 before moving to Washington in 1861.Please note: the above correction to Weyl's biography was submitted by his great-grandson Christopher Wolf, March 2006. The story of Max Weyl's life includes his evolution from a watchmaker too shy to hang his paintings in his own shop window, to finally doing so, and having a major collector see the work and buy it, thus launching the artist in Washington, D.C. But, in the end, Weyl would begin to copy his own, too successful landscapes.Essentially self-taught, Weyl would draw on three major influences in his art, from Hudson River School through Barbizon School to the American painter George Inness.Born near Wurttemberg, Germany in Muhlen-am-Neckar in 1837, Weyl was a watchmaker's apprentice there, eventually opening his own jewelry store in 1861 in Washington after emigrating to the United States. He started painting flowers and still-lifes as a hobby, working on his art for the next ten years. Not until 1870, did he gather the courage to exhibit his work in his store window.It was at that point that Weyl's personal miracle occurred---the appearance of a wealthy patron who loved his work and was well connected. He was Samuel Kauffmann, President of the Board of Trustees of the Corcoran Gallery of Art, and publisher of the "Evening Star" newspaper. Kauffman, of all things, stopped by Weyl's shop to have his watch repaired. He saw the artist's paintings and bought a small landscape. That was the beginning. Kauffman continued to purchase paintings as the years went by, as did such Presidential wives as Mrs. Grover Cleveland and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, who would buy and hang Max Weyl's landscapes of the Washington, D.C. area in the White House.Weyl still described himself as a jeweler and watchmaker until 1878, when he listed himself as an artist in directories. In 1879, he went to Europe to see the art in the museums. Financed by a successful first exhibition of his paintings, this experience precipitated the Barbizon influence (he came to be called the "American Daubigny" after the well-known Barbizon painter Charles Daubigny).Weyl's success and fame grew during the remaining twenty years of the Nineteenth Century, up to his death in 1914. The years of the Twentieth Century saw the influence of Inness in Weyl's handling of light in poetic landscapes of the Potomac River marshes and Rock Creek Valley just outside Washington. It was the paintings of the latter subject that the artist eventually turned into a formula because of their popularity.Max Weyl was a member of the Washington Art Club. His work is seen at the Corcoran Gallery of Art and National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.Source: David Michael Zellman, "Three Hundred Years of American Art"

BIOGRAPHY: Max Weyl was a prominent Washington, D.C. artist of the late 19th century known especially for his landscapes of Rock Creek Park and the Potomac River.He was born on December 1, 1837, in Muhlen-am-Neckar, a small town in the Baden-Wurtemberg region of southern Germany. His parents' names were Veit Hirsch Weyl and Emma Miriam Goetz. In 1853 his family emigrated to Williamsport, Pennsylvania, where Weyl worked in watch and clock repair, a trade he had learned through an early apprenticeship. In 1857, he moved to Washington, D.C.In the 1870s, local businessman, Samuel H. Kauffman, publisher of the Evening Star newspaper, took noontime walks on 7th Street and observed Weyl's paintings on display in the shop window. Kauffman purchased some of Weyl's works and became his patron, financing a trip for Weyl to study art professionally in Europe.In 1878, under Kauffman's patronage, Weyl undertook a year of study abroad, visiting studios and galleries in Munich, Paris, Vienna and Venice. After his return to Washington, he and a group of fellow artists formed the "Washington Landscape School", resulting in paintings "plein air" paintings of Washington pastoral scene.Weyl came to be called the "American Daubigny" and his works became very popular among Washington art collectors. His work became part of collections including the White House where purchases were made by Mrs. Grover Cleveland and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, Georgetown University, the Virginia Military Institute, Kiplinger Washington Editors, the Cosmos Club and many others.On Weyl's 70th birthday in 1907, the Corcoran Gallery of Art held a retrospective exhibit of his work. A group of local citizens purchased and donated a work by him to the National Gallery of Art. In recognition and praise they stated: "From the standpoint of art you have contributed works of genius that will stand for all time: while your bearing as a man, citizen and friend has been of that modest and yet far-reaching character that wins the love and retains the esteem of those with whom you have come in contact."
