Julian Alden Weir Biography

(b West Point, NY, 30 Aug 1852; d New York, 8 Dec 1919). Painter, printmaker and teacher, son of (1) Robert Walter Weir. His art education began in the studio of his father. There he and his half-brother (2) John Ferguson Weir acquired an appreciation for the Old Masters, particularly of the Italian Renaissance and of the 17th-century Dutch schools. While Weir pursued in his art a course very different from that of his father and half-brother, his personality as well as his artistic attitudes were shaped by them. In the winters of 1870–71 and 1871–2, he continued his studies at the National Academy of Design in New York, where his instructor was Lemuel Wilmarth (1835–1918).
