Information on Earle
Horter is not plentiful. He was an illustrator
and an etcher who concentrated on urban scenes.
He was a member of the Society of Illustrators.
Exhibition listings begin with the famous Pan-American
Exposition of 1915 in San Francisco and continue
up until his death at such places as Chicago,
Philadelphia, New York and at the Corcoran Gallery
biennials from 1935 to 1939.
He is better known in the art world today for
the exciting collection of modern art that he
amassed during his lifetime. A large portion of
it was dispersed during his lifetime to meet financial
needs but was reassembled at the Philadelphia
Museum of Art in 1999.
