The Music Lesson
By Walter Bonner Gash
Located in Edgartown, MA
An exquisite example of Walter Bonner Gash’s mastery, The Music Lesson (c. 1890) captures the quiet elegance and nostalgia that define his work.

Gash, a British artist celebrated for his evocative depictions of domestic life, beach scenes, and childhood innocence, developed his distinctive soft luminescence while studying at the Lincoln School of Art and the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Antwerp. His works reflect an international influence, blending technical precision with an intimate, almost dreamlike atmosphere. Exhibited at the Royal Academy three times, Gash gained recognition for pieces such as Studying the New Woman...
