- Lot Description
William E. Freeman - also known as Bill Freeman (American, 1927-2012), "Superstition Mountains", oil on canvas, ca. mid 20th century CE. Signed on lower right. A stunning landscape painting depicting Weaver's Needle of the Superstition Mountains (also known as The Superstitions), the most famous peak in that mountain range. Freeman's painting possesses an almost ethereal quality thanks to his dreamy palette of pastel pink, periwinkle blue, sky blue, mauve, lavendar, sage green, yellow, white, and beige and a style that demonstrates influences of Impressionism and Expressionism achieved via a sophisticated use of palette knife and brush. Freeman presents us with an optimal view of this tranquil scene of a mystical mountain range from the dry brush of the land below. Size: 24.25" W x 18" H (61.6 cm x 45.7 cm) Size: 34.25" W x 28.25" H (87 cm x 71.8 cm)
Bill Freeman grew up in West Texas on a farm just outside of El Paso. Interestingly, he worked as a horse wrangler, fought forest fires for the U.S. Forest Service, and was a field researcher and guide for the Arizona Game and Fish Department for twelve years in Arizona, Wyoming, and New Mexico prior to becoming an artist. It was not until the age of 30 that Freeman decided to become an artist specializing in Western landscapes. Today he is considered a pioneer of Western art centered on such storied locales as Scottsdale, Arizona and Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
