Hearn saw the importance of collecting work by American artists, some painted in America and some in Europe, some by well-known artists and some by amatuers. This page depicts two works by American artists; Inness was well-known at this time. Another painting by Inness appears later in the catalog. It sold for $30,800 compared to $375 for the one on this page.
