In the heart of a picturesque valley surrounded by majestic mountains and canyon walls, a charming Indian campsite unfolds on a lush, grassy bank. As a self-taught American representation painter, Hartwig studied the “Old Masters” and was attracted to the charm and romance of Classic Art. His work is compelling to many, having been compared to Albert Bierstadt and John Constable for its composition, romantic nature, and European feel.
