Biography: Robert Wood was a landscape painter whose work is a document of America's fast-vanishing wilderness and seashores. He was aware of the new cross-currents in American art, and had daily contact with these ideas, but elected to travel a solitary path that was true to his own poetic vision of what constituted the American landscape. Resulting were many paintings as well as reproductions, and he caught the attention of the American public. One print, October Morn, sold 1.25 million copies in less that 2.5 years! Born in England, he came to the United States shortly after finishing his art training. He traveled, and earned his living by either hard work or by painting, and there were periods when he painted in storefronts and on street corners. Robert Wood died in March 1979, just short of his 90th birthday.
