ARTIST WORLD RECORD

Best known as a marine and coastal landscape painter who captured the varying moods of the water, William Ritschel was an eccentric who dressed in flowered sarong and perched on cypress-covered cliffs in California with brushes and easel.

Known for poetic landscapes, often sunset, illuminated by atmospheric light, Julian Walbridge Rix was early in his career an active painter in California and then on the East Coast. He was born in Peacham, Vermont on December 30, 1850 and moved with his family to San Francisco in 1853.

A leading American Impressionist, Theodore Robinson was perhaps the most traditionally French in style. Originally from Wisconsin, he studied art in Chicago and New York before moving on to France for the better part of two decades. 

An Impressionist painter, William Robinson created landscape paintings that were very popular in his day, and he was a key figure in the Old Lyme, Connecticut Art Colony.
