This painting was featured in our weekly email on 10/28/16 along with the following gallery comments: Paul Turner Sargent spent nearly his entire life in Charleston, IL. In 1920 he visited Ada Shulz in Nashville and thereafter was a frequent traveler to Brown County – 130 miles east. The results of this are continually before us – many, many Brown County pieces by Sargent appear in the record. Today’s piece, The Yellow Tree comes to us with nothing to identify its locale. Like most Sargent pieces, it’s dated (1920, in fact) and it carries an old exhibition tag from the Peoria Society of Allied Arts Exhibition in 1921 where the title but not the location are noted. So we’re left to guess. It’s a beautiful work full of impasto and an eye toward the detail. Yellow Tree was cleaned and conserved and is very good condition. It’s housed in the unrestored, original frame and ready to hang.
