Nittis, Giuseppe de
Italian, 1846-84
Italian painter, pastellist and printmaker. Throughout his career he was committed to a plein-air aesthetic and was particularly interested in rendering varying light effects, a concern that brought him into contact with the Impressionists. He was also acquainted with the members of the Macchiaioli, for whom his work was influential. In addition to oils, he experimented with printmaking and made innovative use of pastels. Practising a restrained, and therefore 'acceptable', form of Impressionism, he achieved great success in his lifetime, Related Paintings of Nittis, Giuseppe de :. | vadersolstavlan | Stillleben mit gelben Tulpen, apfeln und Grapefruit | The Fruit Vendor | Portrait of Younger Rubens | Portrait of A Lady | Related Artists: Felix Hilaire BuhotFrench, 1847-1898 Modeste CarlierBelgian

Benjamin Champney (November 20, 1817 - December 11, 1907) was a painter whose name has become synonymous with White Mountain art of the 19th century. He began his training as a lithographer under celebrated marine artist Fitz Henry Lane at Pendleton's Lithography shop in Boston. Most art historians consider him the founder of the "North Conway Colony" of painters who came to North Conway, New Hampshire and the surrounding area during the second half of the 19th century. His paintings were often used to make chromolithographs that were subsequently sold to tourists who could not afford Champney's originals. He exhibited regularly at the Boston Athenæum and was a founder of the Boston Art Club
