Local street scenes were Burkhart’s specialty. He masterfully captures the crisp dry air of autumn as well as the deep blue humidity-free sky. His compositional skill is showcased in this painting. It is one of the better examples you will find and from the latter part of the period considered most desirable by collectors.

‘Spring Green’ is a delightful rendering of a rural scene with a farm, rhythmic trees and a field emerging from winter’s cold. It is one of a limited number of works he created using pastels. This is one of the better examples we have had the pleasure of examining over the years and it further demonstrates Burkhart’s versatility as an artist.

The Jaeger Gallery was established to showcase paintings from this important collection. These works come directly from the artist’s holdings at the time of his death as well as several purchased by Mr. Jaeger during Burkhart’s adult life. As the founder of the International School of America, Mr. Jaeger encouraged Burkhart to become the Artist in Residence for the School's global studies program from 1959 to the mid 1960's. This was an especially prolific period in Burkhart’s life as a painter. The works offered in the Jaeger Gallery today focus on subjects Burkhart found to be most inspiring including self-portraits, Central Ohio street scenes and suburban landscapes, among others.
