Taos Painters: William Gollings (1878-1932)
William Gollings' lifelong artistic preoccupation was similiar to famed western artist Frederic Remington. Like Remington, he longed for a forgotten west, and went about authenticating himself in order to render it carefully and faithfully. The result was much the same as that of his idol, as William Gollings' work has much the same elegiac quality as Remington's better creations.
Born in the Territory of Idaho in 1878, William Gollings' early years were spent in the rough-and-tumble mining camp of Pierce City. His parents felt that his education necessitated his departure from Idaho and sent him to live with his aunt in Michigan. Painting from a Mail Order Montgomery Ward paint set, his early pictures gained him entry into the Academy of Fine Arts in Chicago, IL. William Gollings studied there for two years before leaving on a train to Rapid City, South Dakota.
