Richard Schmid, born in Chicago, was inspired by his grandfather, sculptor Julian Oates. He started art training at twelve with the Famous Artists Course, focusing on landscape, figure drawing, and anatomy. At eighteen, Schmid studied classical techniques under William H. Mosby at the American Academy of Art. After military service, he moved to New York, then to Connecticut in 1961 to raise his family. Later, he returned to Chicago, joined and led the Palette and Chisel Academy, and eventually settled in Colorado. Schmid is also a celebrated author of painting books and an influential art educator.
The painting appears to be in good condition. Under UV examination, there is no evidence of restoration or inpainting.
