Provenance: Leanin’ Tree Museum of Western Art, Boulder, CO Scottsdale Art Auction, Scottsdale, AZ, 2018 Private collection, Oregon Literature: The Story of Leanin’ Tree: Art Enterprise in the American West, Don Hedgepeth and Ed Trumble, Leanin’ Tree Inc, Boulder, CO, 2008: p. 333. A Full Moon at Sunrise on Mount Taylor hung for many years at the now closed Leanin’ Tree Museum of Western Art in Boulder, Colorado. In his book on the collection, Leanin’ Tree founder Ed Trumble shared personal stories about the artworks: “Wilson told me of the inspiration for this unique scene: ‘At dawn on the 25th of March, I watched as the full moon set behind Mt. Taylor, 80 miles to the west. As the morning sun crept over the hills behind me, the snowy ridges of the mountain emerged, and the desert floor was suddenly washed with oranges, pinks, and blues, just as you see them in the painting.”
