A substantial and lyrically painted watercolor showing a view of the original Spanish colonial church and mission buildings at Carmel on the California coast with a view beyond towards the Carmel highlands. Mission San Carlos Borromeo del Río Carmelo, founded by Fr. Junipero Serra in 1770 and the second of the 21 missions, is one of the most intimate and authentically restored of the mission churches in California.
Henry Volle first attended the University of Illinois and subsequently studied in Europe, including at the Klinger Institute, Vienna. Upon returning to the United States, Volle began to study with the water-colorists of the California Bay area. Essentially a plein-air painter, Hank Volle painted along the California coast where he exhibited with success. He was also a member of the Santa Clara Watercolor Society and the Society of Western Artists. less
