Henry Peters Gray, born on June 23, 1819, in New York, was a leading portrait and history painter of the mid-19th century. He began his studies with Daniel Huntington, whose development, career and reputation were amazingly similar to Gray's own, they were also very close in age. From New York City, Gray went to Europe in 1839 to study the old masters and returned in 1841.
He made a second trip to Europe in 1846, where he produced several of his most characteristic works, including "Cupid (showing 500 of 1996 characters). |
