ROBERT
FLETCHER GILDER
(American 1856-1940)
Sunset in
Spring Hollow – February,
1938
Signed
lower right
20 inches
x 24 inches
Estimate $500-$1,000
Verso with
gallery label of Harry P. Whitmore – Omaha and inscribed by
the artist “This painting was made near the mouth of North end
of Spring Hollow in Fontanelle Forest Nebraska…” Oct 27, 1939,
and with photo postcard of the artist.
Born in Flushing, New York, Robert Gilder was a long-time
landscape painter in Omaha, Nebraska, known for impressionist
winter scenes of the creek that ran through his property.
Gilder was also a respected archaeologist and writer.
He was the son of Reverend Robert Nutt Gilder and Jane Gilder
and grew up in a family of highly successful siblings. His
brothers were John Francis Gilder, concert pianist; William
Henry Gilder, noted Arctic explorer; Richard Watson Gilder,
writer, poet and editor of “Century” and “Scribner’s”
magazine; and Joseph Gilder, executive of Industrial Finance
Corporation in New York City. A sister, Jeanette Gilder was
author, editor, and newspaper executive.
Robert was educated in Newark, New Jersey public schools and
The Gunnery School in Washington, Connecticut and studied art
with Hudson River School painter August Will in New York City.
Gilder’s father was a good friend of naturalist John
Burroughs, who stirred the artist’s interest in nature.
Because of two failed marriages, accusations of wife abuse and
alcoholism, he settled in 1887 in Nebraska where, disdained by
his eastern family, he started a new life. He worked briefly
as a printer’s assistant at Rees Printing Company and then for
thirty-two years worked for the “Omaha World Herald,” where he
became City Editor. From Nebraska, he traveled extensively,
and began painting in the early 1900s at the Nine Bar Ranch,
owned by an Omaha friend, near Lusk, Wyoming where he had gone
to get material for a story on cowboys.
For twelve years, he served as archaeologist of the University
of Nebraska Museum in Lincoln. He discovered prehistoric flint
quarries in Wyoming in 1904, and also discovered The Nebraska
Loess Man, to that time the oldest documented human being. In
1917, the University of Nebraska gave him an honorary Doctor
of Science degree for this accomplishment, and in 1922, he
became president of the Nebraska Academy of Sciences. In 1927,
he founded the Omaha Philosophical Society, and in 1928 the
Omaha Nature Study Society.
In 1916, in Fontanelle Forest south of Omaha, he built a cabin
and studio that he called “Wake Robin” after a character in
John Burroughs’ book. “Wake Robin”. His art studio was in this
cabin. (The name of his cabin home is from the plant Trillium
erectum an early spring flower. Wake-robin is a member of the
lily family. The flowers are usually dark reddish-purple, a
woodland flower, preferring shade and blooms April to June.
This flower wakes the robin in spring. Note from Janet Smith)
A close friend of Harold Bell Wright, famous novelist who
lived in Tucson, Gilder spent much time there and in other
locations from 1919 painting desert landscapes. A frequent
companion on these trips was Augustus Dunbier. Gilder also
discovered forty-seven pueblo ruins in southern Arizona.
Gilder sold his paintings through the Whitmore Gallery at 1517
Dodge Street, and from 1924, the supervisor of art for the
Omaha Public Schools required all eight grade students to
spend one week studying Dr. Gilder’s work. He died of
pneumonia on March 6, 1940.
He did preliminary oil landscape studies in “plein air,” and
then completed them in the studio. He painted quickly, usually
finishing a painting in one day. In November, 1957, the
Greater Omaha Historical Society presented a special program
commemorating Gilder, and the main speakers were Augustus
Dunbier and Dr. Christlieb. He is buried in Bellevue Cemetery
south of Omaha. |
