释义 | Robinson, TheodoreRobinson, Theodore,1852–96, American painter, b. Irasburg, Vt. Beginning his career as a realist, Robinson was profoundly influenced by his meeting with Monet in 1888. Translating the impressionist rendering of light, air, and broken color to the American landscape, Robinson combined contemporary American and European trends. His Giverny: Bird's-Eye View is in the Metropolitan Museum.Robinson, Theodore(1852–96) painter; born in Irasburg, Vt. After attending the National Academy of Design in New York City (1874) and helping found the Art Students League, he studied in Paris (1876–78) and returned to the U.S.A. Up to this time he painted in a conventional realistic manner, but after a second stay in France (1884–88)—particularly after meeting Claude Monet in 1887—he embraced and promoted the Impressionist style. He settled in New York City in 1892, determined to apply the Impressionist style to American subjects, as in Port Ben, Delaware and Hudson Canal (1893) or Union Square in Winter (1895). |
