David Johnson Biography

(b New York, 10 May 1827; d Walden, NY, 30 Jan 1908). American painter. He was a member of the Hudson River school and was virtually self-taught except for a few lessons from Jasper Francis Cropsey. He was primarily a landscape artist and a Luminist who rendered subtle effects of light and atmosphere with precise realism. His earliest works were copies of prints, for example West Point from Fort Putnam after Robert Havell jr (c. 1848; Cooperstown, Mus. NY State Hist. Assoc.). His first painting from nature (executed in the company of John William Casilear and John Frederick Kensett) was Haines Fall, Kauterskill Clove (1849; untraced, see Baur, fig. 2), and he began exhibiting the same year.
