Original Description
Howard Russell Butler’s "Clearing after September Gale—Maine Coast" captures the dramatic beauty of nature’s raw power and tranquil aftermath. Painted in the late 19th or early 20th century, this seascape exemplifies Butler’s mastery in capturing atmospheric effects and luminous skies, merging realism with a subtle impressionistic touch. The composition depicts a storm clearing over the rugged Maine coastline, where churning waves meet brooding clouds pierced by rays of sunlight—a testament to Butler’s scientific precision (he trained as a scientist) and artistic sensitivity. As a pioneering figure in American plein air painting, Butler’s works bridge the Hudson River School’s grandeur with modern luminosity, making this piece historically significant for its transitional style and technical innovation.
For interior decor, this painting’s dynamic yet balanced composition makes it ideal for spaces needing both energy and serenity. Hang it in a study or executive office to evoke resilience and clarity, or in a coastal-themed living room where its blues and golds harmonize with nautical hues. A medium-to-large size (original dimensions approx. 30x40 inches) ensures impact without overwhelming; replicas or framed prints should scale proportionally to the wall. Pair with natural materials like driftwood or linen textiles to echo its organic tones, while minimalist furniture keeps focus on the artwork. The painting’s cool palette suits rooms with ample daylight, enhancing its radiant sky, while directional lighting can dramatize its contrasts for evening ambiance.
