Description
By William Stanley Haseltine, 1870-85. Haseltine, part of the Luminism movement, was born in Philadelphia, attended the University of Pennsylvania and received a degree from Harvard in 1854. After his wife died in during childbirth, he remarried and moved to Rome, which would for most of his subsequent years serve as his home. While his paintings of Capri and Sicily would prove popular with visiting American tourists, Haseltine also traveled and drew in France, Belgium, and the Netherlands, summering in Bavaria and the Tyrol in the 1880s and 1890s. In his later years he also returned periodically to the United States, making a final trip to the west in 1899.
