Daniel Ridgway Knight
American Naturalist painter
born 1839 - died 1924
Daniel Ridgway Knight’s works represent so many aspects
of Nineteenth Century painting, including history, genre,
landscape, portrait, and floral themes. In each work, all
that is aesthetic is recorded with fine detail and skill.
In order to faithfully record the scenery, Knight studied
the different phases of the day and their effects on the
environment. Knight built a glass studio outside of his home,
enabling him to paint outdoors, even in the dead of winter.
Whether he was concentrating on the evening with the glow of
moonlight upon the Seine River or on a young woman in a
brightly colored flower garden at midday, each scene is
depicted with great detail and with specific attention to
a realistic portrayal of the landscape.
