All auctions / Arts & Graphics / Tilden Daker (American, 1870-1935) Exhibition Size Oil on Canvas
This oil on canvas by Tilden Daken captures the prehistoric majesty of the giant sequoias inside the historic Calaveras Grove. Blending the luminous tenets of California Impressionism with the moody, atmospheric depth of Tonalism, the composition features monumental, towering redwood trunks that stretch beyond the upper edge of the frame. A dramatic light effect filters through the dense upper canopy, slicing through a dark, atmospheric palette to sharply illuminate the forest floor where small figures are rendered, providing a stark sense of scale that emphasizes the colossal height of the ancient trees. Executed with expressive, textured brushwork, the piece is signed in dark paint in the lower right Tilden Daker. The verso retains its original wooden stretcher and a preserved red-bordered paper label featuring the handwritten inscription: REDWOODS CALAVERAS GROVE CALIFORNIA NO 126 SIZE 25X30. The work is housed in a multi-tiered gilt wood frame with a repeating scroll-pattern inner liner. Sight size: 24.25"W x 36.5"H. Dimensions: 31.5"W x 36.5"H Weight: 11.8 lbs Condition Request Condition Report Good.
