Description

Ernest L. Blumenschein "Sangre de Cristo Mountains" Canvas Reproduction

A framed canvas reproduction after Ernest L. Blumenschein (1874–1960), co-founder of the Taos Society of Artists, depicting a procession of shawled figures gathered before an adobe mission church beneath a crescent moon and the dark mass of the Sangre de Cristo range. The composition captures Blumenschein's signature post-impressionist palette — muted pinks, deep blues, and twilight purples — with the twin bell towers and red-tile roofs anchoring the upper third of the canvas above the densely massed crowd below.

Presented in a gilt wood frame with linen liner and engraved brass artist plaque reading "ERNEST L. BLUMENSCHEIN, N.A. 1874–1960." The original work hangs in the collection of the Anschutz Collection / American Museum of Western Art; this canvas reproduction makes the imagery accessible at decorative scale for the Taos and northern New Mexico enthusiast.


CONDITION

Good. Fading consistent with UV exposure over time. Frame shows minor wear at corners and edges. Brass plaque intact and legible.
