George Elbert Burr
American, 1859–1939
Burr worked as an illustrator in New York before spending several years travelling and sketching in Europe around 1900. Moving west for his health, he settled in Denver and later in Phoenix, and became best known for etchings of the deserts and mountains of the American Southwest, many worked with drypoint and aquatint and some inked in colour to suggest the light of dawn and dusk.
