Robert Hogg Nisbet (1879–1961) was an American painter, etcher, and printmaker best known for his landscapes, figure studies, genre scenes, and evocative etchings. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, he showed an early talent for art and entered the Rhode Island School of Design at the age of eight before continuing his studies in New York and Europe. He became associated with the Old Lyme art colony and later settled in Kent, Connecticut, where he founded the Kent Art Association. Nisbet served as president of the Art Students League of New York and was elected a full member of the National Academy of Design in 1928. His landscapes often emphasize natural light, atmospheric effects, and the quiet character of the Connecticut countryside, while his accomplished etchings demonstrate a strong command of line and tonal variation. His work was exhibited widely and is held in collections including the National Gallery of Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
