| Brush, George de Forest |
| George de Forest Brush was born in 1855, two years after Howard Pyle. He studied in Paris under Jean Leon Gerome, among others. His work was printed in Harpers and Century Magazines as early as 1881, including an illustrated article, An Artist Among the Indians in 1885. He taught at Cooper Union and at The Art Students League and he exhibited and was a member of the National Academy of Design. It is fairly unlikely that Wyeth was unaware of his work. |
