96 142473/1EDWARD WILLIS REDFIELD(american 1869-1965)“THE ROAD TO CENTRE BRIDGE”Signed ‘E.W. Redfield’ bottom left,oil on canvas38 x 50 in. (96.5 x 127cm)provenance:The Artist.The Estate of the Artist.To the Artist's son, Laurent Redfield.By descent in the family to theArtist's great-grandson.Private Collection, Washington, DC.note:When Edward Redfield and hisfamily settled in the charmingenvirons of Centre Bridge,Pennsylvania, on the banks of theDelaware River in 1898, he surelycould not have known that in doingso, he was laying the foundation forone of the great American Artcolonies—the New Hope School.The town of Centre Bridge—theAnglicized spelling is traditional—was integral to both Redfield’s lifeand practice.In “The Road to Centre Bridge,” onecan see the eponymous originalwooden bridge in the distance.During a thunderstorm on the nightof July 22, 1923, lightning struck the112 year-old bridge causing it to

ignite. Redfield was driving homewith his family when he saw theblaze in the distance. Fearing that itwas his house, on fire, he spedhomewards only to realize—presumably with a measure ofrelief—that it was, in fact, theadjacent bridge. Redfield and hisfamily gathered together with manyother spectators including his fellowartist, William Lathrop, on the riverbank to witness the inferno and thefirefighters’ frantic efforts toextinguish it. Redfield laterremarked, “Lathrop said it was apity it couldn’t be painted. So I tookout an envelope and painted all thenext day. The following day, Ipainted it again.” This painting, “TheFire at Centre Bridge,” believed tobe one of the only ones createdentirely in his studio from memory,is widely considered to be one ofhis best and is a highlight of thecollection in the Michener Museumin Doylestown, Pennsylvania, whereit was presented as a partial gift bythe Laurent Redfield family.“The Road to Centre Bridge” comeswith an impeccable provenance.The painting formed part of theartist’s estate and was chosen byhis son, Laurent, following a

drawing of lots within the family todetermine ownership. From LaurentRedfield, the painting hasdescended to the artist’s greatgrandson, to whom it currentlybelongs. As one present familymember pointed out, theirgrandmother, at one time, hadpaintings of “the bridge before,during, and after the fire.” Together, these works are asplendid testament to the artist’screative powers and his love of theCentre Bridge area which he calledhis home.The present painting will beincluded in the forthcomingCatalogue Raisonné of EdwardRedfield's work, compiled by Dr.Thomas Folk.$150,000-250,000

note:As a plein air artist—one whopaints outside in the elements,rather than in the studio—Redfieldsoon became a familiar figure in thetown of Centre Bridge andsurrounding vacinity, trudgingthrough the snow to set-up acanvas, or strapping one to a treeand energetically capturing thelandscape in front of him with hisvigorously bold brushwork and richimpasto. Redfield’s charismaticpresence soon attracted many otherartists to the area, including GeorgeSotter, Fern Coppedge, JohnFolinsbee, Daniel Garber, HarryLeith-Ross, and KennethNunamaker, many of whom weredirectly influenced either byRedfield’s work or his methods.Collectively, these artists becameknown as the “PennsylvaniaImpressionists” and their work,Redfield’s in particular, wascelebrated as the embodiment of auniquely American vision. At thetime, the noted painter and critic,Guy Pene du Bois, described it as

“our first truly national expression.”“Centre Bridge,” an evocative winterscene, depicts the current bridgewhich was completed in 1926 andbuilt upon the remaining piers andabutments of the original (see Notefor lot 96 regarding the originalbridge). The present painting hasimpeccable provenance. After theartist’s death, it was acquired from“History House” by the artist’sdaughter-in-law, Dorothy. It isbelieved that Dorothy Redfield mayhave bought the painting becauseshe wanted her collection to showexamples of the bridge before,during, and after the fire. The workhas since descended through thefamily to the current owners, theartist’s great grandson and greatgranddaughter.The present painting will beincluded in the forthcomingCatalogue Raisonné of EdwardRedfield’s work, compiled by Dr.Thomas Folk.$120,000-180,000
