The Wyeth Family of Artists

What makes a Wyeth painting so special? In this course we’ll review and discuss selected works by four members of this illustrious family of American artists: N.C., Andrew, Jamie, and Carolyn. We’ll look for what common features, besides enormous talent, their works might share. Also, we’ll consider how their works relate to those of certain past and contemporary artists.

This is a hybrid course: you may register to be in-person or on Zoom. 

Between periods of academic employment and teaching college courses in Russian literature and general humanities, George Young and his wife ran (for more than twenty years) a fine arts business, buying, selling, and appraising works of Old Masters, nineteenth, and early twentieth century American and European art.
