William Tylee Ranney was a 19th-century American painter.
Background
William Tylee Ranney was born on May 9, 1813 at Middletown, Connecticut, the son of William and Clarissa (Gaylord) Ranney. The middle name given him at baptism he never used. At the age of thirteen he was taken to Fayetteville, North Carolina, by his uncle, and there he was apprenticed to a tinsmith.
Education
In 1833 he was studying drawing in Brooklyn, New York.
Career
Beginning in 1843 he is listed in the New York City directories as a portrait painter. At the outbreak of the war with Mexico he enlisted in the army commanded by General Taylor and proceeded to Texas, where he fell in with many hardy adventurers and picturesque types of Southwestern character - trappers, hunters, explorers, and pioneers - who interested him intensely as novel subjects for pictorial treatment.
After his return to New York he devoted himself to portraying their life and habits.
In 1850 he was elected an associate of the National Academy of Design, and thereafter he was a frequent exhibitor at the annual exhibitions.
His essays in historical painting were somewhat crude but interesting for their dramatic vigor of expression and action. In this line of work his more important pieces were "Daniel Boone and his Companions discovering Kentucky, " "The Sale of Manhattan by the Indians, " "Washington on his Mission to the Indians" (1847), "Marion Crossing the Pedee" (1851), engraved by Charles Burt, and "The Burial of De Soto. "
After his marriage he moved to West Hoboken, New Jersey, where he built a home and studio. There Tuckerman found him busily at work, with cutlasses, guns, and pistols hanging on the walls of the studio, curious saddles and primitive riding gear, and other properties suggestive of his Southwestern experience and taste for border adventure. His pictures, "albeit not remarkable for finish in detail or maturity of execution, " were not wanting in dramatic truth, natural and local interest, or picturesque effect. They were therefore quite popular. Ranney's closing years, however, were darkened by failing health and poverty, and when he died in 1857 his family was left nearly destitute. His fellow-artists in New York came to the aid of his widow and children. The members of the National Academy freely contributed their own pictures and organized a large exhibition of some two hundred works, including all the pictures and studies left in Ranney's studio. The public sale that followed was so successful that the mortgage on the house in West Hoboken was paid and $5000 was left in the hands of trustees for the support of the bereaved family.
Achievements
Ranney is regarded as one of the most important pre-Civil War American painters, and his paintings are highly prized by Western and early American art collectors.
Among his best known paintings may be mentioned "Duck Shooters" (1849), which was engraved by Charles Burt, the print being issued as one of the premiums offered by the American Art Union. He also painted "On the Wing, " "Wild Horses, " "The Muleteer, " and "The Old Oaken Bucket. "
The consensus of opinion among contemporary critics and artists was that, while Ranney was not skillful, owing to his lack of thorough training, the freshness and immediacy of his impressions, together with the interest attaching to his subjects, lent his pictures a distinct historical and graphic worth.
