Beschreibung
Charles William Bartlett (1860-1940) Kīlauea Crater signed with initials, inscribed and dated 'HAWAII / C.W.B. / 1918' (lower left) gouache and graphite on paper 10 1/2 x 13 7/8 in. (26.7 x 35.2 cm) Painted in 1918. Footnotes: Provenance Private collection, Maryland. Charles Bartlett was born and raised in England. He worked briefly as a chemist at a metallurgical company, but his focus quickly shifted to art. He trained in London and Paris but became best known for his work in Asia and Southeast Asia. Bartlett and his wife, Catherine, traveled extensively through Pakistan, India, Indonesia, China, and Japan. It was in the Pacific that he found his inspiration and his subjects. In Japan he met a publisher interested in publishing color woodcuts for the American and European markets, and Bartlett's watercolors of exotic locales such as Java, Madura, and Kilauea were imbued with the perfect balance of detail and heightened beauty. The two began collaborating to turn Bartlett's compositions into woodblock prints in 1916.
