A landscape painter who combined modernism and realism, Carl Sprinchorn was born in Sweden, and spent much of his life in New York state but is most associated with Maine. Between 1937 and 1952, he lived near Shin Pond in Maine's North Woods, painting the life of Maine lumberjacks, hunters, and river drivers.
He arrived in New York City from Sweden at age 16 and enrolled in the New York School of Art where he was a long-time student of Robert Henri and also studied with William Merritt C (showing 500 of 1728 characters). |
