William Hart Paintings

1823-1894

Born in Scotland, William Hart emigrated with his family to New York on the ship Camillus in 1830. He became known for serene, bucolic and romantic landscapes. Many of his paintings had cattle and realistic figures diminished in the landscape, a motif he began in the late 1880s. Hart was a second generation "Hudson River School" painter. George Inness and Asher Durand were major influences, although he was basically self-taught.
