Landscape painter William Sartain, in 1877, was known primarily for his
Tonalist paintings, especially scenes of the tidal wetlands of
Nonquitt, Massachusetts, where he spent many summers, and along the
Manasquam River in New Jersey, where he often traveled on weekends.
He helped found the Society of
American Artists. While Sartain evolved to broadly handled,
painterly landscapes of coastal subject matter, his early work included
heads and
canal and street scenes of Venic (showing 500 of 4164 characters). |
