About the Item

William Samuel Horton (American, 1865–1936) Cattle Grazing at Dusk Oil on canvas laid down on board 25.25 x 29.125 in. (64 x 74 cm) Provenance: From the estate of the artist and thence by descent A serene and atmospheric pastoral scene, Cattle Grazing at Dusk exemplifies William Samuel Horton’s ability to evoke quiet drama through light and tone. The composition is bathed in the soft glow of evening, as grazing cattle become gentle silhouettes against a fading sky. Horton’s fluid brushwork and subtle colour transitions create a mood of contemplative stillness, capturing a fleeting moment between day and night. An accomplished American Impressionist, Horton trained in Paris and exhibited widely in both Europe and the United States. His work reflects the influence of the French Impressionists—particularly Monet—yet retains a distinctly personal sensibility marked by a love of open landscape and atmospheric effects. Horton's paintings are held in a number of prestigious private and institutional collections, admired for their emotive power and luminous technique.
