Albert Leighton Rawson Watercolor

This original watercolor by Albert Leighton Rawson (1829–1902) presents a finely detailed desert landscape with a flowing stream, palm trees, and three figures at the water’s edge. Rawson’s precise draftsmanship and controlled palette highlight the clarity and depth of the scene, reflecting the skill that made him a noted 19th‑century illustrator and traveler. The work remains in strong, stable condition with excellent color retention and is housed in a period wooden frame that complements the composition. A desirable example of Rawson’s landscape work, it offers collectors an attractive, display‑ready piece from a well‑documented American artist.
