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.
