(1836-1899)
Ransom Holdredge was born in New York in 1836 and was a resident of San Francisco by 1860, where he had a studio and supplemented his income by working as a draftsman. In 1874 he left for Europe to study in Paris, where he fell under the influence of the Barbizon artists. Upon his return to San Francisco his highly literal style had become more moody and painterly. He exhibited to acclaim and commercial success for many years, traveling and painting throughout the Northwest. He eventually succumbed to his own demons, dying of alcoholism in Oakland, California, in 1899.
