Wilson Irvine (1869-1936) was an American Impressionist painter known for his luminous landscapes and innovative use of light and color, particularly in scenes of the Midwest and Old Lyme. Associated with the American Impressionism, Irvine experimented with techniques such as “prismatic painting,” applying broken, vibrant strokes to capture shifting atmospheric effects. He was an active member of prominent artists’ groups, including the The Ten American Painters, and gained recognition for both his technical skill and his contributions to the development of Impressionism in the United States.
