Overall Size: 27 1/2 x 33 in. Charles Merrill Mount (1928–1995) was an American artist, born Sherman Merrill Suchow in Brooklyn, New York, who studied at the Art Students League after attending Columbia University. Best known for portraits, landscapes, and streetscapes, he worked in oil, watercolor, and charcoal and spent time abroad in Europe—including Italy, France, Britain, and Ireland—before returning to the U.S. His career also included writing published biographies of artists like John Singer Sargent, Gilbert Stuart, and Claude Monet. Later in life, Mount became embroiled in scandal: he was convicted of stealing historical documents from the National Archives and Library of Congress.
