Edward Potthast

Edward Potthast

1857-1927

Edward Henry Potthast (1857-1927) was an American Impressionist painter known for his sunny beach scenes and high-keyed details such as balloons, hats, and umbrellas.

Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Potthast studied at the McMicken School of Design and later traveled to Europe, where he was influenced by the French Impressionists.

He returned to the United States and became a prominent figure in the American art scene, exhibiting at the National Academy of Design and the Paris Salon.

Potthast's paintings are characterized by their use of light and color, and he is considered one of the most important American Impressionist painters of his time.
