William Preston Phelps Art

American, 1848-1921

William Preston Phelps was born in Chesham, New Hampshire, on March 6, 1848. After studying in Europe for seven years, he returned to set up a studio in Lowell and became well known for his plein air New England landscape, animal and harbor scene paintings. He eventually moved back to his birthplace in Chesham, where he painted many scenes of Mount Monadnock and landscapes of the Merrimack Valley. Phelps died on January 6, 1923, in Dublin, Ireland.
