Henry Pember Smith
Henry Pember Smith was entirely self-taught as a painter. He traveled extensively and painted numerous landscapes of Normandy, England Brittany and particularly of Venice. Smith developed a reputation for his work as a landscape artist and became commercially successful in his lifetime. The body of his work focused on escapism, paintings that idealized tranquility and the essence of the quiet countryside, following in the trend of his contemporaries to present work that would appeal to an ever urbanizing audience. His work is noteworthy for its’ handling of light and watery reflections, these treated with intricate brushwork that just touched on impressionism, creating a dream-like effect that engendered nostalgia. Visions of homely cottages, farms by the water’s edge, Venetian buildings on canals and small village centers are all painted in his very distinct stylizing. Smith maintained studios in New York City and exhibited extensively at the Brooklyn Arts Association, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and the National Academy of Design; he was also a member of the American Watercolor Society. His works are held in museums and institutions that include the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Brooklyn Art Museum, Cincinnati Art Museum, the North Carolina Museum of Art and the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco to list a few. Smith lived in the seaside town of Asbury Park, New Jersey until he died in 1907.

- Charles Henry Miller Impressionist Landscape Oil PaintingBy Charles Henry MillerLocated in Larchmont, NYCharles Henry Miller (American, 1842-1922) Untitled (New York Landscape), c. 1900 Oil on canvas laid on foam 6 1/8 x 10 5/8 in. Signed lower left: C.H.M. Charles Henry Miller was a noted artist and painter of landscapes from Long Island, New York. The American poet Bayard Taylor called him, "The artistic discoverer of the little continent of Long Island." Miller was educated at Mount Washington Collegiate Institute, and graduated in medicine at the New York Homeopathic Institute in 1864. Before his graduation, he had occasionally painted pictures, and in 1860 he exhibited The Challenge Accepted at the National Academy of Design, in New York City. He lived in Queens at the summer estate, Queenslawn, originally purchased by his parents. He went abroad in 1864 and again in 1867, and was a pupil in the Bavarian Royal Academy at Munich under the instruction of Adolf Lier. After the 1874 death of his father, Jacob Miller, who was a wealthy architect and builder, Miller received a large inheritance that allowed him to paint as an independent artist for the remainder of his long life. He worked seriously and exhibited regularly, including at international exhibitions. The majority of his oil paintings depict Long Island subjects, especially those in and around Queens Village. Fed up with the development of the eastern part of Queens (present-day Nassau County), he began to spend part of his summers in East Marion, Long Island, c. 1910. Here he spent his time sketching and painting the surrounding areas. In 1885 he published The Philosophy of Art in America, using the pseudonym Carl De Muldor (he was descended from the De Muldor family). His work was recognized: in 1873, he was elected an associate of the National Academy of Design and an academician in 1875. He served as president of the New York Art Club in 1879 and of the American Committee at the Munich International Exposition in 1883.
