Paul Calle is an artist whose work reflects the dramatic era of America's Western heritage as well as the one in which he lives. For Paul Calle, the dimensions of art can be as vast as the wild, wind-swept plains of the West, as infinite as outer space and as small as the historic scenes he captures on postage stamps for the United States Postal Service.
Family of the Mountains
The art of Paul Calle pays tribute to the trailblazers of the fur trade's early days and the Indians who befriended them. These trappers respected the Indian customs and rituals, understood their values, and many adapted, in varying ways, to the Indian way of life, as seen in Family of the Mountains. "After a two-day ride, a mountain man and his family emerged from the woods and thick pine forests into the solitude of a mountain meadow with its waving sea of golden flowers " - Paul Calle Giclée Canvas 180 s/n plus 14 Artist's Proofs 26" x 37" $1,445.00 Canadian (FAMI0003) When Trails Cross
A limited edition on paper has also been publisher. Publisher sold out. Paul Calle, the Visual Historian, masterfully captures a moment (above) in the solitary existence of three trappers, who meet by chance in the High Country: "...The trappers welcome the opportunity to rest their ponies as they eagerly swap stories and news of the fur trade. But, days are short in the High Country. Soon they will part, and only the sound of the chilled timberline breeze will remain as it echoes through the pass." -Paul Calle Giclée Canvas 90 s/n plus 20 Artist's Proofs 34 x 48" $1995.00 Canadian With Wambli: My Brother
"Soaring beyond the range of human eyes, the eagle has always been master of his lofty domain. Indian legends tell of the migrations of their people, who climbed to the top of a mountain where a great eagle stood guard. Before they could enter his land, the eagle made them pass a test, whereupon he gave his permission saying, 'You may lead your people into this land. You may use my feathers for your prayer sticks whenever you wish to speak to the Creator. I am the one who flies the highest and closest to the sun; therefore your prayers will be taken to Him quickly.'" Paul Calle Giclée Canvas 180 s/n plus 18 Artist's Proofs 11 x 15" $505.00 Canadian (WITH0005) The Winter Hunter
With elaborate detail and painstaking historical accuracy, Paul Calle celebrates the quiet courage and rugged dignity of those who left their mark in the frontier wilderness. "My drawing of The Winter Hunter was inspired by some descriptive narrative in Osborne Russell's book, Journal of a Trapper. After completing the pencil drawing, I was fascinated with the possibility of creating an oil painting of the same subject. I became intrigued with the color relationship of the red wool capote against the white snow, the rough texture of the tree bark contrasting with the snow-covered pine trees and the warm gray feathers of the geese." - Paul Calle Giclée Canvas 180 s/n plus 20 Artist's Proofs 35" x 38" $2900.00 Canadian With Lance and Shield
"Although his face seems menacing, his stance defiant, my painting of With Lance and Shield reminds me of an Indian prayer: 'O Great Spirit Whose voice I hear in the winds and whose breath give life to all the world, hear me! I am small and weak, I need your strength and wisdom I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy - myself.'" -Paul Calle Limited Edition Print 450 s/n 20 x 14" $249.00 Canadian Some works may sell out before others and therefore may not be available at time of order. |
