John Leslie Breck Field with Dappled Sunlight, Giverny
About the Item
A fine impressionist painting of a French pastoral landscape with trees and cows in the distance by American artist John Leslie Breck (1860-1899). Breck was born in the South Pacific aboard a ship (his father was a Navy captain), and grew up in the Boston area. He obtained his art training at the Munich Royal Academy, learning rapid brushstroke and dark Tonalism. Beginning in 1886, he studied at the Academie Julian in Paris, and soon became one of the original settlers of the important Impressionist art colony in Giverny, France. At Giverny, Breck not only came to know Monet, he also became romantically involved with his stepdaughter, Blanche Hoschede-Monet. Monet intervened, however, and the disappointed suitor Breck left Giverny in 1890 and returned to Boston via England and California. Breck's achievements as an American artist constituted some of the earliest fully realized impressionistic paintings in this country. His works influenced the positive movement of Impressionism that occurred in the Boston area in the late 1880s and 1890s.
