Description |
Landscape watercolor in an ornate gold gesso desktop frame. Lloyd Branson (1853–1925) is one of Knoxville’s most celebrated artists. After studying art in New York and abroad, he returned home to Knoxville, and by 1880, he had helped open the McCrary and Branson Studio, which created photographic and painted portraits. In addition to portraits and history paintings, Branson executed a fair number of watercolor landscapes, here portraying an East Tennessee autumn riverside scene in glowing colors. Branson continued as a leader in the East Tennessee arts community until his death. |
