96THOMAS HART BENTON(american 1889-1975)STUDY FOR “AMERICANHISTORICAL EPIC -COLONIZATION: THE AXES”Signed ‘Benton’ bottom left, oil onboard20 x 15 in. (50.8 x 38.1cm)provenance:Boyer Galleries, New York, NewYork.Acquired by the present owner’sfather in the 1930’s or 40’s.
note:Arguably the leading Regionalistpainter of the American scene,Thomas Hart Benton painted anumber of important murals,including America Today (1930), forthe New School of Social Research,The Arts of Life in America (1932), forThe Whitney Studio Club Mural, ASocial History of Indiana (1933), forthe state of Indiana’s pavilion at theChicago World’s Fair, and A SocialHistory of Missouri (1935-6), for theMissouri State Capitol Building. Thepresent work is a study for one ofthe paintings from the series TheAmerican Historical Epic, an earlier,multi-panel mural Benton began in1919 and worked on into the late1920s. Never completed, Benton’sidea for the mural is said to havebeen inspired by a reading of JesseAmes Spencer’s History of the UnitedStates as well as by his boyhoodambition to paint a series that woulddepict “The Explorers andAdventurers of Early America.”
The American Historical Epic was firstconceived as an ambitious series of
paintings in ten separate chapters,with each chapter comprised of fivepanels. The series was created todepict American history, from itscolonial beginnings, through frontierexploration, the Civil War, throughto the rise of American industry.Benton is said to have completedfrom fifteen to eighteen paintings ofThe American Historical Epic – fivepanels from three, rather than all tenchapters. The ten paintings inchapters one and two of this series –all bequeathed to the Nelson-AtkinsMuseum, Kansas City - depictthemes involving Native Americansand European explorers. The fivepanels comprising the third and finalchapter, entitled Colonization, wereexecuted in 1924-7, and depictthemes of struggle and labor.Included in this final chapter is TheAxes, the prototype for the presentpainting.
The Axes (final version in thecollection of Lyman Field and UnitedMissouri Bank, Kansas City) depictsfour men chopping trees – anallegory of industry. The final
version measures 59 1/4 x 41 1/4inches, and features two of the men,the standing figure at center left,and the distant figure at center right,wielding axes, which are omittedfrom the present work.
