A snow-covered mountain is barely distinguishable at the upper right. Marsden Hartley adopted the Italian divisionist artist Giovanni Segantini’s “stitch” brushstroke, which he used to build up an image out of short, interlocking lines of pure color. He applied the pigment thickly and spontaneously, giving the painting a highly expressive character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the fall of 1908, Hartley moved to Maine and settled on a farm in Stoneham Valley near North Lovell, where he remained until March 1909. Working in isolation and enduring the severe winter conditions, he produced a large number of paintings, including \u003ci\u003eMaine Woods\u003c\/i\u003e, in his fully developed neo-impressionist style. The innovative, expressive, and spiritual quality of such works impressed Alfred Stieglitz—photographer and avant-garde art impresario—who arranged a solo exhibition for Hartley at his 291 gallery in New York in 1909. Although the show received mixed reviews and was a financial failure, it helped establish Hartley as a leading member of the American avant-garde.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nga.gov\/artworks\/72332-maine-woods\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art Washington DC - Maine Woods\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marsden Hartley","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49839970058483,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (29 1\/2\" x 29 1\/2\")","offer_id":49839970091251,"sku":null,"price":1436.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (17 7\/8\" x 17 7\/8\")","offer_id":49839970124019,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (21 7\/8\" x 21 7\/8\")","offer_id":49839970156787,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (26 7\/8\" x 26 7\/8\")","offer_id":49839970189555,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (34 5\/8\" x 34 5\/8\")","offer_id":49839970222323,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (41 5\/8\" x 41 5\/8\")","offer_id":49839970255091,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (49\" x 49\")","offer_id":49839970287859,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (58 3\/4\" x 58 3\/4\")","offer_id":49839970320627,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/MaineWoods.jpg?v=1783492260","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/maine-woods","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
