Margaret Wendell Huntington

Margaret Wendell Huntington (July 6, 1866 – April 17, 1958) was an American artist known for realist landscapes, still lifes, and shore scenes. Critics admired her bright colors, her vigorous style, and the accurate rendering of her subjects. In a career that extended from the 1890s to the 1950s, she participated in many group and solo exhibitions in commercial and non-commercial galleries as well as museums and national expositions. She received instruction from prominent artists of the New York art community and Paris. Margaret Wendell Huntington should not be confused with another other artist of her generation, Margaret Huntington Boehner (1874–1973) whose career overlapped with hers and who lived and worked in the same geographic region.
