Description: Titled Ball Players, this charming oil on paper by Charles Henry Miller (1842–1922) captures a lively scene of figures scattered across a bright green field beneath a dramatic, textured sky. Though best known as a Long Island landscape painter, here Miller turns his focus to the human presence in nature, blending delicate detail and broad brushwork to create a sense of movement and community. At just 6 by 8 inches, the painting is intimate in scale but full of energy and atmosphere. It is signed on the reverse and comes from the artist’s estate, passed down through the family and purchased at auction in the Berkshires around 2004. A rare and personal work, this piece highlights Miller’s deep connection to the American countryside.
