Biography: Was a Scottish born American painter best known for his landscapes associated with the Hudson River School. Emigrating to the United States with his family in 1831, he settled in Brooklyn, New York, where he studied at the Brooklyn Institute and helped found the Brooklyn Art Association. Williamson traveled extensively throughout the Adirondack, Catskill, Berkshire, White, and Green Mountains, creating poetic landscapes inspired by the natural beauty of the American Northeast. Influenced by the atmospheric qualities of the Luminist movement, his paintings are often compared to those of John Frederick Kensett and Sanford Robinson Gifford. Elected an Associate of the National Academy of Design in 1861, Williamson exhibited widely during his lifetime, and today his works are represented in major museum collections, including the Brooklyn Museum, the Hudson River Museum, and the Maier Museum of Art.
