Walter Granville-Smith
Walter Granville-Smith, reportedly produced the first color illustration in America, which appeared in Godey's Lady Magazine, in conjunction with a story entitled The Christmas Witch, by Gertrude Atherton. Others of his illustrations appeared in such publications as Harper's, Scribner's, Truth and Collier's. The most popular of these subjects were women depicted in either interior or out-of-door scenes. Granville-Smith, however, counted success in more than simply illustration. Winning numerous prizes from such institutions as the National Academy of Design, the Carnegie Institute, the American Water Color Society and the Salmagundi Club, of which he was a member, Granville-Smith was propelled to popularity. He worked in oil, watercolor, etching and combinations of the three, strengthening his skills and talent under the tutelage of such artists as Walter Satterlee, J. Carroll Beckwith and Willard Metcalf, both at the Art Students League of New York and abroad. Granville-Smith's exhibition record is phenomenal: at the Boston Art Club (1898–1909), 50 years at the National Academy of Design (1890–1940), at the Pennsylvania Academy (1904–28), at the Art Institute of Chicago (1896–1925), at the Corcoran biennials (1907–37) and at the Carnegie International (1905–31). Although Granville-Smith spent his wanderjahre in Europe, where he more firmly integrated the impressionistic aesthetic into his art, some of these works simply represent well-executed examples of high-keyed Tonalism. In works dating circa 1910, Granville-Smith demonstrated a near-analytical observation of nature, as well as a mastery of technique. In these paintings, the artist appears to be turning from illustration to pure easel painting, toward a subjective lyricism comparable to that of John H. Twachtman. Throughout his work, Granville-Smith incorporated the methods of plein-air study. In so doing, he demonstrated one of the fundamental pursuits of impressionism: a keen sense of natural light and atmospheric changes. He was a member of the National Academy and continually active in the New York area art Community. He died on 7 December 1938.

- "Solebury Valley"By William Langson LathropLocated in Lambertville, NJSigned lower right. Complemented by a period frame. William L. Lathrop (1859-1938) Deemed “Father of the New Hope Art Colony”, William Langson Lathrop was born in Warren, Illinois. He was largely self-taught, having only studied briefly with William Merritt Chase in 1887, at the Art Students League. Lathrop first moved east in the early 1880s, and took a job at the Photoengraving Company in New York City. While there, he befriended a fellow employee, Henry B. Snell. The two men became lifelong friends and ultimately, both would be considered central figures among the New Hope Art Colony. Lathrop's early years as an artist were ones of continuing struggle. His efforts to break through in the New York art scene seemed futile, so he scraped enough money together to travel to Europe with Henry Snell in1888. There he met and married an English girl, Annie Burt. Upon returning to New York, he tried his hand at etching, making tools from old saw blades...Category
