ARTIST: Herbert M Herget (Missouri, 1885 - 1950) NAME: American Indians on Horseback MEDIUM: watercolor and gouache on paper CONDITION: Minor foxing. Framed under glass. SIGHT SIZE: 7 x 9 inches / 17 x 22 cm FRAME SIZE: 14 x 15 inches / 35 x 38 cm SIGNATURE: lower right CATEGORY: antique vintage painting AD: ART CONSIGNMENTS WANTED. CONTACT US SKU#: 118406 US Shipping $49 + insurance. BIOGRAPHY: Herbert M. Herget was an archaeological painter for National Geographic magazine. I have copies of National Geographic, which include his work from 1935 to 1951. He did not live to see his last major project published in the magazine in 1951. The subject of Herget's illustrations in that posthumous issue was "ancient Mesopotamia, a light that did not fail." Following is a quotation from the 1951 magazine describing the artist:"In the paintings by H.M. Herget, the facts about a complex civilization that lasted several thousand years were compressed and arranged in chronological sequences from remote to prehistoric times down to the middle of the first millennium B.C.Each picture stands for a whole age, or for a significant phase of the given age. The episodes, based on fact or on imagination, may be descriptive of a moment in history or of a whole era.If the text did not furnish him with something better and stranger than fiction, he invented an incident, but sought to be true to the spirit of the time. Details rest on a solid foundation. His needs for highlighting a composite and dynamic civilization by instilling life into each individual painting impose an added strain on the artist.Mr. Herget's experience and interest proved to be a unique combination. He faced the problem, delighting in its challenge. It is a source of deep regret that he did not live to see his last major project published."
