  • American Impressionist: Springtime, a sunny path in France 19thC oil painting
    By William Baptiste Baird
    Located in Norwich, GB
    This beautiful and light filled painting testifies of a new dawn: in the 1880s the landscape and animalier artist William Baird turns to Impressionism.

William Baptiste Baird was born in Chicago, Illinois, in 1847, but as an adult moved to Paris to perfect his painting technique. In Paris, Baird studied under Adolphe Yvon...
