Thomas Chambers (New York, England, 1808-1869) Castles of the Mind. Unsigned, c. 1845-60. Oil on canvas, showing castles on steep rocky promontories above a river below, figures in a Chinese-style sailboat at rest in right foreground, 22 x 30 in., in likely original giltwood frame. Condition: Unlined, minor spots and lines of retouch. Literature: For a discussion of similar works, see Kathleen A. Foster, Thomas Chambers: American Marine and Landscape Painter, 1808-1869 , pp. 74-76, fig. 3-37. Note: Kathleen Foster writes about this series of Chambers' output, that "at least a dozen paintings...combine the exotic appeal of the East and the legendary beauty of the Rhine Valley into the most fantastic landscapes in Chambers' repertory."
