Irving Marlatt (American, 1860-1929) painter and illustrator primarily known for his oil, watercolor and pastel landscapes, portraits, marine scenes, animal subjects, Native American Indian, western and southwestern subjects. Marlatt was born in Woodhull, NY to painter and photographer Wilson Marlatt (1837-1911) and mother Mary Ann (née Doty) Marlatt (1832-1924), and he had an older brother Percy D. Marlatt (1859-1882 [sometimes listed as Perry]) who passed away at the young age of twenty-three in Hornellsville, NY.H. Irving Marlatt first studied art with his father and also in France as part of the 19th century Barbizon school of painters. In 1894, he married Lillie Belle (née Knoche) Marlatt (1870-1934) and the couple moved to Buffalo, NY, where they maintained a home and studio at 358 Richmond Avenue as well as a later studio at 391 Franklin Street. His father Wilson was also a landscape painter and a photographer who had worked as a photographer in Harrisburg, PA and also in the Photo Studio of William Lybolt Sutton (1828-1899) in Hornellsville, NY. Wilson displayed such talent with a brush that he gave up photography to devote his time to painting and by 1884, he had been residing in Buffalo, NY, where he maintained a studio in the White Building. Wilson later moved to Rochester, NY in 1897, and he along with his son Irving often exhibited together in various shows in Buffalo and also Rochester. On March 24, 1901, their daughter Frances Knoche Marlatt (1901-1969) was born in Buffalo, NY, who became a noted attorney and civic leader in Mount Vernon, NY.In 1907, H. Irving Marlatt and his family moved to Mount Vernon, NY, where they remained for the rest of their lives. Marlatt initially maintained his home and studio at 240 North Fulton Avenue and a studio later at 104 Cottage Avenue, then their home at 28 Chester Street. In 1908, Marlatt made a return trip to Europe which was financed by the help of twenty subscribers that had been secured by Rev. Charles Albertson, pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church of Rochester that he and his father had known personally. Many of the scenes he painted (as requested by the subscribers), were done while in England, Scotland and Holland. Upon his return, ninety-four paintings were exhibited to include works from his trip and works by his father Wilson Marlatt at the Cornwall Building in April 12, 1908. His father passed away on October 9, 1911 from palsy and is buried in Mt. Hope Cemetery, Rochester, NY. After his death, H. Irving had a thirty-day sale of about one hundred of his father’s paintings from his home located at 17 Plymouth Avenue.Marlatt was a member of the Salmagundi Club*, the National Arts Club* of New York, Buffalo Fine Arts Academy, Buffalo, NY, Artist and Illustrators’ Club of Buffalo, NY (Ofiicer 1906), the Tres Arts Club of Cleveland, OH. Select exhibitions include shows at the National Academy of Design*, The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts* (1885, 1891 & 1892), New York Watercolor Exhibit, Albright Art Gallery, Buffalo, NY (January, 1906), Los Angeles, CA (1906), as well as shows in Rochester, NY to include the Cornwall Building (1907 & 1908), Hotel Seneca (1909), and the East High School (1910), with additional shows in Mount Vernon, NY (Fall, 1907, 1911 & Memorial Show 1929) and five paintings shown in September, 1977 at the Genesee Valley Council of Arts exhibit, “Up and Down the River”, Geneseo, NY.Marlatt also made many trips out west to paint Native American Indian, western and southwestern subjects that included southern California in 1916, where he painted a view of the Santa Barbara Mission and other local scenery. Many of Marlatt’s paintings and western scenes appeared on the covers and in publications such as, The Saturday Evening Post (Cover Jan. 6, 1906 Woman in Kimono), Ladies Home Journal, and covers for Literary Digest. His style was grand in the mid-19th century manner of landscape painters Thomas Moran (American, 1837-1926) and Albert Bierstadt (German-American, 1830-1902) with emphasis on the majesty of human nature and the untamed nature of the landscape. Marlatt was also known to have painted portraits of all the governors of New Jersey from the beginning up to 1928.His works are in many private and public collections to include the Strong Museum in Rochester, the Rochester Historical Society, four lobby murals at Hotel Seneca (Native American Indian scene of Chief Redjacket, Grand Canyon, Aztec Indians scene and Dutch girl scene), Rochester, NY, and the Mount Vernon Public Library. Marlatt’s mother Mary Ann (née Doty) Marlatt continued to live in Rochester, NY, and passed away on December 14, 1924 at the age of ninety-two in St. John’s Home for the Aged in Rochester and is buried in Mount Hope Cemetery, Rochester, NY (From: her obituary, and didn’t pass away in 1875 as some sources state, and for the fact she found her husband Wilson dead in 1911 in Rochester, NY where they resided.).H. Irving Marlatt passed away on October 10, 1929 (As noted in the New York State Death Index, not on October 11, as other sources state.) after a year-long illness from his home located at 28 Chester Street in Mount Vernon, NY. His wife Lillie passed away on January 10, 1934 and is buried in Woodlawn Cemetery, Bronx, NY, and their daughter Frances passed away on November 28, 1969 in Mount Vernon, NY and is also buried in Woodlawn Cemetery there.Additional Info & Notes About the Confusion Over the Artist’s First Name: The artist is usually listed as either: H. Irving Marlatt or Hamilton Irving Marlatt, and sometimes incorrectly listed as Hector Irving Marlatt, Henry Irving Marlatt and Even M. Irving Marlatt, with a birth date of either 1860 or 1867 from various sources and born in either Woodhull, NY or Rochester, NY, but he was listed in an 1885 exhibition as being born in 1860 in Woodhull, NY (so 1867 and also born in Rochester are incorrect for this artist).Early exhibition records, city directories and old newspapers (going back to 1885-on forward) show the artist himself only gave his name as (or was listed as) just ‘H. Irving Marlatt’ or simply ‘Irving Marlatt’, and even his obituary in 1929 lists his name as just ‘H. Irving Marlatt’. Early census records from 1870 for his family list him as only, ‘Irving Marlatt’ (age 10) with one family tree descendent listing him as Hamilton Irving Marlatt, and even the New York State Death Index lists him only as ‘Marlatt, H. Irving’,… but the ONLY truly vintage references I could find for his full name ‘Hamilton Irving Marlatt’ were from only a few sources as follows: From his wife Lillie’s obituary in 1934 from, The Daily Argus (Mount Vernon, NY), which mentions his full name as written in the obit as follows: “Mrs. Lillie Knoche Marlatt, sixty-four, widow of Hamilton Irving Marlatt and mother of Miss Frances K. Marlatt, Mount Vernon…”; and from a 1987 account by Irene Wray Swanton who knew their daughter Frances, as told in her story, “The Marlatts – Turn-of-the-century Rochester Artists”, from The Friends of Mt. Hope Cemetery, newsletter, Vol. 7, No. 1, Spring-Summer, Rochester, NY, 1987, Pages 2-3, which mentions his name as ‘Hamilton Irving’…. And for the fact that his grandfather’s name was Hamilton Marlatt (Wilson’s father) which is possibly where he may have gotten it…so I personally lean towards those sources as good indicators that his first name was Hamilton, but we’ll just list him simply as ‘H. Irving Marlatt’ for the time being…ADVERT SIZE: SEE PHOTO FOR DIMENSIONS ( ALL DIMENSIONS IN INCHES) Item Condition: SEE PHOTO CAREFULLY...All original ads have some sign of age use.. these are period ads and we take quality photo's to show any flaws.
