provenance: 

The Collection of Rudolph J. Schaefer, New York. 

To his son, William M. Schaefer, New York. 

literature: 

Schaefer, Rudolph, J. E. Buttersworth, 19th-Century Marine Painter, Mystic 

Seaport, Inc., Connecticut, 1975, p. 96, no. 71 (illus.) 

note: 

“This scene shows part of the fleet that competed in that historic race 

around the Isle of Wight on August 22, 1851. America, the only American 

entry against 14 British boats, won the trophy which was to become the 

famous America’s Cup. In the painting above, America appears in the right 

middleground leading the pack. The Royal Yacht Victoria and Albert stands 

off in the distant right background with Queen Victoria aboard together with 

her Prince Consort, Albert, and the Royal party watching the event. Several 

of the British cutters which participated looked very much alike and, lacking 

any special identification marks, it is impossible to tell which of the group 

these are.” 

[Schaefer 96]. 

Typical of Buttersworth’s ouevre, “The Royal Yacht Squadron Cup Race, 1851” 

documents an event on the sea in stunning detail. As the son of a marine 

painter, J.E. Buttersworth more than carried on the family legacy of the 

subject - he became synonymous with it. Few nineteenth century marine 

artists were as prolific as Buttersworth, and none excelled like he at 

capturing a racing scene with such deftness that he transcended mere 

documentation.

I was spending a week with my friend and fellow partner Ben Foster at 

his home in West Cornwall, Conn. 

He had been urging me for some time to see his place in winter and 

said “I want to take you to a spot about ten minutes walk from the 

house where you can get a view of the further hills” and so “The 

further Hills Seen Through a veil of evening light” was painted. 

It is one of my best things and I believe the people who now own it 

will grow very fond of the painting for the motive has a real appeal- 

With kindest regards, 

Sincerely yours 

Gardner Symons

Considered the first wildlife painter 

in America, Carl Rungius (1869- 

1959) was both a sportsman and an 

artist who depicted animals in their 

natural environs. A native of Rixdorf, 

Germany – now present-day Berlin – 

he had a keen interest in nature and 

art from an early age, particularly 

that of the American West. Its vast, 

uncharted territory would present 

Rungius with greater opportunities 

to both hunt and paint, and a 

fortuitous invitation from his uncle 

to travel to America was pivotal in 

shaping his career. Eventually 

becoming a prolific and celebrated 

artist, much in the tradition of the 

Hudson River painters who 

preceded him, he glorified the 

American landscape. Rungius also 

became a champion of the 

conservation movement, and was 

pitted against the forces of late 

19th-century Western 

expansionism. 

After immigrating to the Unites 

States in 1896, Rungius maintained 

a New York studio while he travelled 

extensively throughout Yellowstone, 

Wyoming, Montana, Alaska and the 

Yukon, eventually establishing a 

summer studio in Banff, Alberta in 

1922, known as ‘The Paintbox’. 

Following in the tradition of the 

plein-air painters of the 19th and 

20th-centuries, Rungius dutifully 

studied and recorded his subjects, 

revealing not only a great love and 

respect for nature and its 

inhabitants, but a concern for 

depicting animals and landscapes 

with fidelity. As such, it is not 

surprising that he enjoyed a 

successful career as an illustrator of 

books, magazines and other 

material promoting conservation 

and the support of endangered 

animals. 

Rungius was not alone in his 

portrayal of animals; a century 

earlier, sporting artists of Britain 

achieved notoriety in painting 

equine-themed subjects, including 

thoroughbreds and racehorses. 

However, in such pictures, while the 

animals are portrayed realistically 

and in a dignified manner, they are 

rarely depicted in their natural 

environments. Instead, whether with 

a jockey up or with a groom, to 

name but two common themes of 

the period, the horses’ identities and 

importance are both inseparable 

from, and justified by, the existence 

of sportsmen in full racing/hunting 

regalia. In 19th-century Britain, and 

to a lesser extent parts of the 

Continent, the worth of an animal is 

directly tied to its owner, with the 

latter viewing the former almost 

strictly as an instrument providing 

commerce and social standing. 

Rungius, along with many wildlife 

painters he would later influence, 

69 

free≤an’s 



very rarely included humans in his 

paintings, for to do so would be 

wholly antithetical to his idyllic 

depictions, unspoiled by humans 

and their encroachment on nature. 

We are pleased to offer this Rungius 

painting depicting a stately grizzly 

bear. Immortalized on canvas, this 

impressive creature joins his many 

other works of moose, big horn 

sheep, caribou, mountain goats, 

pack horses, and antelope, all 

capturing the spirit and beauty of 

magnificent animals in the precious 

natural and threatened world they 

inhabit.

At about the time the artist created 

this drawing, the father of the sitter, 

Felix E. Schelling, a professor of 

Shakespearean Literature at the 

University of Pennsylvania, 

purchased the house across the 

road from the Garbers at Cuttalossa. 

The dwelling, formerly owned by 

Mary Maxwell, was owned by the 

Schellings until 1945 when it was 

purchased by the Salter family. Felix 

Derbyshire Schelling, the subject of 

this drawing, was, among other 

things, an artist, and would later 

teach art at the Penn Charter School 

for Boys in Philadelphia. For another

Sale. Buyer thereupon assumes full 

risk and responsibility of the 

property sold, agrees to sign any 

requested confirmation of purchase, 

and agrees to pay the full price, plus

at the sole risk and charge of the 

buyer(s), and Freeman’s may

month of the total purchase price on 

any balance remaining ten (10) days 

after the day of sale. If Property is 

not removed by the buyer within ten 

(10) days, a handling charge of 1% 

of the total purchase price per 

month from the tenth day after the 

sale until removal by the buyer shall 

be payable to Freeman’s by the 

buyer; Freeman’s shall charge 1.5% 

of the total purchase price per 

month for any property not so 

removed within 60 days after the 

sale. Freeman’s will not be 

responsible for any loss, damage, 

theft, or otherwise responsible for 

any goods left in Freeman’s 

possession after ten (10) days. If the 

foregoing conditions or any 

applicable provisions of law are not 

complied with, in addition to other 

remedies available to Freeman’s and 

the Consignor (including without 

limitation the right to hold the 

buyer(s) liable for the bid price) 

Freeman’s, at its option, may either 

cancel the sale, retaining as 

liquidated damages all payments 

made by the buyer(s), or resell the 

property. In such event, the buyer(s) 

shall remain liable for any deficiency 

in the original purchase price and 

will also be responsible for all costs, 

including warehousing, the expense 

of the ultimate sale, and Freeman’s 

commission at its regular rates 

together with all related and 

incidental charges, including legal 

fees. Payment is a precondition to 

removal. Payment shall be by cash, 

certified check or similar bank draft, 

or any other method approved by 

Freeman’s. Checks will not be 

deemed to constitute payment until 

cleared. Any exceptions must be 

made upon Freeman’s written 

approval of credit prior to sale. In 

addition, a defaulting buyer will be 

deemed to have granted and 

assigned to Freeman’s, a continuing 

security interest of first priority in 

any property or money of, or owing 

to such buyer in Freeman’s 

possession, and Freeman’s may 

retain and apply such property or 

money as collateral security for the 

obligations due to due to Freeman’s.

accorded a secured party under the 

Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial 

Code. 

10 

Unless the sale is advertised and 

announced as “without reserve”, 

each lot is offered subject to a 

reserve and Freeman’s may 

implement such reserves by bidding 

through its representatives on behalf 

of the Consignors. In certain 

instances, the Consignor may pay 

less than the standard commission 

rate where Freeman’s or its 

representative is a successful bidder 

on behalf of the Consignor. Where 

the Consignor is indebted to 

Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an 

interest in the offered lots and the 

proceeds therefrom, other than the 

broker’s Commissions, and all sales 

are subject to any such interest. 

11 

No “buy” bids shall be accepted at 

any time for any purpose. 

12 

Any pre-sale bids must be 

submitted in writing to Freeman’s 

prior to commencement of the offer 

of the first lot of any sale. Freeman’s 

copy of any such bid shall 

conclusively be deemed to be the 

sole evidence of same, and while 

Freeman’s accepts these bids for the 

convenience of bidders not present 

at the auction, Freeman’s shall not 

be responsible for the failure to 

execute, or, to execute properly, any 

pre-sale bid. 

13 

A Buyer’s Premium will be added to 

the successful bid price and is 

payable by the buyer as part of the 

total purchase price. The Buyer’s 

Premium shall be: 25% on the first 

$50,000 of the hammer price of 

each lot, 20% on the portion from 

$50,001 through $1,000,000, and 

12% thereafter. 

14 

Unless exempted by law from the 

payment thereof, the buyer will be 

required to pay any and all federal 

excise tax and any state and/or local 

sales taxes, including where 

deliveries are to be made outside 

the state where a sale is conducted, 

which may be subject to a 

corresponding or compensating tax 

in another state. 

15 

Freeman’s may, as a service to buyer 

arrange to have purchased property 

posted and shipped at the buyer’s 

expense. Freeman’s is not 

responsible for any acts or 

omissions in packing or shipping of 

purchased lots whether or not such 

carrier recommended by Freeman’s. 

Packing and handling of purchased 

lots is at the responsibility of the 

buyer and is at the entire risk of the 

buyer. 

16 

In no event shall any liability of 

Freeman’s to the buyer exceed the 

purchase price actually paid. 

17 

No claimed modification or 

amendment of this Agreement on 

the part of any party shall be 

deemed extant, enforceable or 

provable unless it is in writing that 

has been signed by the parties to 

this Agreement. No course of 

dealing and no delay or omission on 

the part of Freeman’s in exercising 

any right under this Agreement shall 

operate as a waiver of such right or 

any other right and waiver on any 

one or more occasions shall not be 

construed as a bar to or waiver of 

any right or remedy of Freeman’s on 

any future occasion. 

18 

These Conditions of Sale and the 

buyer’s, the Consignor’s and 

Freeman’s rights under these 

Conditions of Sale shall be governed 

by, construed and enforced in 

accordance with the laws of the 

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and 

Consignor and Buyer agree to the 

exclusive jurisdiction of the 

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of 

Common Pleas and the United 

States District Court for the Eastern 

District of Pennsylvania.
