William Henry Bancroft, English, 1860 to 1932, Riverside Landscape Scene, oil on board, circa 1900, signed lower left. Note: William Henry Bancroft briefly studied drawing at the University of Manchester, before, at the age of fifteen, deciding to make his way to America. He traveled to the American West where he joined General Crooks scouts in Santa Fe. In 1878, Bancroft studied for several months at the Saint Louis Art School and then went to Leadville, Colorado where he decorated bars and painted signs. There he met Thomas Moran and accompanied him on a sketching trip. He created paintings of mining camps and mountain landscapes and did commissioned work for the Santa Fe Railroad that included scenes of the Grand Canyon. Under the tutelage of Harvey Otis Young, Bancroft learned to paint brightly colored landscapes quickly, often finishing them on location in one day. One of a kind artwork.
