Included in this lot is an original, signed Carl Tolpo, ”Mt. Eisenhower” oil painting from 1965. Carl Tolpo was born in Ludington, Michigan in 1901. During the course of his career, he established his reputation as a portrait, genre, and landscape painter, as well as a portrait and figure sculptor. As a painter, his works in fine oil portraiture particularly include state portraits and landscape oil paintings of the western USA, mostly the Yellowstone Park region. His works are on display in the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. This beautiful 1965 painting portrays a grand view of the unique, rocky Mt. Eisenhower, located in Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies. This mountain was originally named Castle Mountain in 1858, by James Hector, for its castle-like appearance. From 1946 to 1979, this mountain was known as Mt. Eisenhower in honor of World War II general, Dwight D. Eisenhower. Public pressure caused its original name to be restored, but a pinnacle of the southeastern side of the mountain was named Eisenhower Tower. On the top right of this painting, Tolpo signed "Mt. Eisenhower Banff 8-8-65 Carl Tolpo". The back of the painting is also marked "Mt. Eisenhower Banff". The artwork measures 12" by 16".
