- Lot Description
MAYNARD DIXON (American 1875-1946)
The California Gold Rush - General Sutter - circa 1930
Tempera and ink
Signed lower left "MAYNARDIXON"
8 inches x 14.25 inches
Provenance:
Nedra Matteucci Galleries, Santa Fe, New Mexico, where acquired in October 2014The offered lot is a sketch for a proposed mural for the private Sutter’s Club, in Sacramento, California. It depicts General Sutter atop a horse directing the local indigenous people. The proposal for the mural which was initiated in 1930 never came to fruition due to the onset of the Great Depression and as such the commission was canceled.
The Sutter Club, founded in 1889, is the second oldest private club in the state of California. Its colorful history began when Sacramento was still little more than a river-dependent town best known as the chief outfitting headquarters for waves of gold-crazed vagabonds and sharpies.
Sacramento matured and prospered in part because of its role as the Capital of California. The Sutter Club, located at Fourth and J Streets became a second home to visiting lawmakers and various legislative hangers-on. Every Governor of California, save one, has been a member of the Sutter Club.
The Club moved to its present location in 1930 and has been the site of an endless variety of social gatherings. The building was designed by local architect Charles Dean and is a striking example of early California mission style architecture. It is located in downtown Sacramento, across the street from the State Capitol.
