Eanger Irving Couse House and Studio—Joseph Henry Sharp Studios, Artist studios and residence in Taos, United States.
The Couse House and Sharp Studios comprise a multi-building complex in Taos with structures designed in Mission Revival and Pueblo Revival styles. The site includes working studios, living quarters, gardens, and a research center where visitors can explore the creative spaces and residences.
Two artists established their studios here in the early 1900s and became founding members of a major art movement in the region. Their facilities grew into an important gathering place for painters interested in the Southwest landscape.
The studios display the work of artists who focused on painting the landscape and people of the Southwest during their time here. You can see how their artistic interests shaped the objects and decorations throughout the buildings.
Visitors explore the buildings and grounds through guided tours that are available by appointment. Planning ahead is recommended since hours change with the seasons and availability.
The property preserves a private garden designed by one artist's wife and a house with original furnishings from the 1930s period. These spaces offer a rare glimpse into how residents actually lived during those decades.
