Born in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Alfred Bricher devoted most of his career to marine painting along the eastern seaboard. He was considered one of the last of the luminist artists, and did paintings, often in watercolor, that convey reflective and atmospheric effects of light on water and air at different times of the day and under varying weather conditions. As a watercolorist, he also depicted good-looking female figures.
Bricher grew up in Newburyport, Massachusetts, and largely self (showing 500 of 5059 characters). |
