This biographical note is by Paul Rizo-Patrón, grandson of George Hand Wright's brother-in-law, Arthur A. Boylan.
Artist George Hand Wright was born in Pennsylvania in about 1872. His masterful drawings and water colors merited his being made a member of the National Academy. As an illustrator, he was a weekly contributor to the Saturday Evening Post.
He was one of the founders of the artistic community of Westport, Connecticut, where he owned a large property with a Dutch Coloni (showing 500 of 5908 characters). |
