Original Chamisa Landscape Painting “Glowing Sunset” [SOLD]

Robert Daughters specialized in painting landscapes and people of Northern New Mexico, Arizona and Mexico. At one time, he lived in Taos, New Mexico. He then shared his time between the Sea of Cortez in Mexico and the Catalina foothills of Tucson, Arizona.  He passed away in 2013.

When Daughters lived in Taos, it was in a house built by Oscar E. Berninghaus. Daughters was a co-founder of the group of artists known as the Taos Six. The others with him in this group were Walt Gonske, Rod Gobels, Ron Bursano, Ray Vinalla and Julian Robles.

Daughters’ paintings may be defined as being in the Impressionist style, even though the artist preferred not to categorize his work to a single style. His portraits are presented in wonderful vibrant colors.

This painting is not dated but was originally sold by a Santa Fe gallery in 1998, which establishes the date it was completed, as that gallery represented the artist. It is of a large Chamisa plant at sunset.  It is a true representation of a New Mexico high desert scene.  It is in the original frame.

Condition: original condition

Provenance: this Original Chamisa Landscape Painting "Glowing Sunset" is from the collection of a client from Washington
