“Autumn in the Catskills” is one of Robert Wood’s best-known woodland scenes. It is a colorful depiction of autumn in the Catskill Mountains, where Wood had a cabin in the 1950s. The contrast between the green grass on the left side of the painting and the brightly colored trees on the right makes this an essentially dramatic composition. This work was painted in the late 1950s, when Wood was at the peak of his powers and fame.

"Bluebonnets in Texas" is a beautifully painted Texas scene by the American artist Robert W. Wood. It features a broad field of Bluebonnets on one of the old pioneer ranches that Wood loved to paint.The farmhouse is framed by a pair of oak trees that are so characteristic of the Texas hill country. The rolling hills of the background stand out against a sky with puffy white clouds. This work was painted in the 1950s on one of Wood’s trips back to Texas and came to us from an old Texas family. It is in pristine condition.

This painting is one of Robert Wood’s finest and most dramatic works. It depicts Washington’s famous Mt. St. Helens, which erupted on May 18, 1980, losing its peak, in one of the most important geologic events in modern American history. Painted in the 1930s, it shows the famous Cascade peak late in the afternoon when the golden light is at its most dramatic. The mountain, which has a bluish cast, is framed by trees, with a waterfall in the center foreground.
