Edward B. Gay
Pastoral Landscape

1870

About the Item

A fine pastoral landscape by Irish artist Edward B. Gay (1837-1928). Gay was born in Dublin, Ireland, and emigrated with his to Albany, NY at a very young age as a result of the potato famine. He began his art studies with a local Hudson River School artist James Hart, who was also an emigrant of the British Isles and saw talent in the young Edward. By 1858, at the age of twenty-one, Gay was already exhibiting at the National Academy of Design in New York. He relocated to Mount Vernon to accommodate the needs of a growing family, and would spend the next 58 years painting southern Westchester County, adopting the Barbizon manner by capturing the mood and light of many of the area’s quiet nooks and crannies. Gay was a member of both the Century Association and the prestigious Union League Club of New York. His works found their way into many museums and public collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York Historical Society, Westchester Woman’s Club, Brigham Young University in Provo, UT, and many more. Oil on canvas, signed and dated 70 lower right, and housed in a decorative giltwood frame. Dimensions: 22 in H x 40 in W, actual; 30 in H x 48 in W x 1.5 in D, framed. Ref: 8
