“October Morning” (oil on canvas), by Leonard Ochtman (American, b. Netherlands, 1854–1934), in the show “Connecticut Impressionism,’' at the Bruce Museum, Greenwich, Conn, through June 30., 2024.
The museum says:
“Drawn entirely from the Bruce Museum’s permanent collection, this installation reveals the important role that Connecticut played in the development of American Impressionism from the late nineteenth century through the first two decades of the twentieth century. Artists such as Childe Hassam, Elmer MacRae, Leonard and Mina Ochtman, and John Henry Twachtman formed deep connections with the landscape, inspiring paintings that would come to define Impressionism in the United States.’’
