DESCRIPTION
Worthington Whittredge was a sign and house painter who went on to study in Europe, where he sketched alongside Albert Bierstadt and modeled as Washington for Emanuel Leutze's Washington Crossing the Delaware. On his return to America, he infused new life into the Hudson River School by incorporating the aesthetics of the Barbizon and Impressionist movements. His affinity for painting places that he personally loved is apparent in this bright and summery vignette of Second Beach, Newport, where families swim, picnic, and stroll into the breakers.
