The Story Behind the Painting

1905
Oil on canvas
58 1/4 x 40 3/8 in.

In Southern California exemplifies Redmond's considerable talents as a painter on a grand scale. The large vertical format emphasizes the height of the trees and depth of the landscape. Redmond uses a lone figure in red to give the viewer perspective against the looming grove, a technique commonly used by the French Barbizon painters in the mid-19th Century. Even the late day setting sun and golden colors are reminiscent of the same French painters who inspired early California plein air artists such as Granville Redmond and John Bond Francisco. By concealing from the viewer what is behind the trees, the artist creates tension and energy that enlivens the scene. Does a spectacular sunset await if one were able to walk to down the same path and see what is around the next corner? To our knowledge, this is the largest vertical format painting known by Granville Redmond.

As dining room wall art, the piece pairs naturally with other heritage wall art and with warm neutrals, timber, and soft natural light.
