The picturesque coast of Boston's North Shore, from Revere to Marblehead, was home to a remarkable school of American marine impressionists.

The picturesque coast of Boston's North Shore, from Revere to Marblehead, was home to a remarkable school of American marine impressionists. From 1882 to the 1890s, seven significant American artists shared a similar technique and interest in the wide beaches, tidal marshes, and working fisherfolk of the Lynn and Swampscott shorelines. The seven -- Nathaniel L. Berry, Edward Burrill, William Partridge Burpee, C.E.L. Green, T. Clark Oliver, Edward A. Page, and Charles H. Woodbury -- developed a particular style of regional impressionism and form the group now known as the Lynn Beach Painters. In this volume, art historian D. Roger Howlett for the first time recognizes the group for both its cohesiveness and its significance, and places the artists' work within the context of late nineteenth-century American art, a period that was strongly influenced by French Impressionism, plein-air painting, and the modern Dutch school. Through careful research and lavish illustration, The Lynn Beach Painters restores this sometimes overlooked school to its rightful place in American art history.
