Summary:
Charles S. Kaelin (American, 1859-1959) Winter Woods, circa 1900 pastel on paper painting
Signed to lower left. Object label and artist history on verso.

Charles Kaelin (1858–1929) was a celebrated Cincinnati-born Post-Impressionist painter and lithographic designer who bridged the art worlds of the Midwest and the Eastern Seaboard. After establishing his career in the 1890s designing for Cincinnati’s famed Strobridge and Tuchfarber lithography companies, Kaelin gained renown for his mastery of oils and pastels, earning a silver medal at the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition. Affectionately dubbed the "Hermit Painter" despite his active role in the artist communities of Cincinnati and New England, he permanently settled in Rockport, Massachusetts, in 1916, where he co-founded the Rockport Art Association and produced his acclaimed harbor scenes and landscapes. Frequently exhibited at prestigious institutions like the Cincinnati Art Museum and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Kaelin’s work remains preserved in prominent public and private collections nationwide.
