Alexander Helwig Wyant Biography
(b Evans Creek, nr Port Washington, OH, 11 Jan 1836; d New York, 11 Nov 1892). American painter. He began as an itinerant painter of topographical landscapes along the banks of the Ohio River c. 1854, influenced by such landscape artists as Worthington Whittredge and George Inness. In 1863–4 Wyant moved to New York, where he was impressed by the paintings of the Norwegian artist Hans Gude in the Düsseldorf Gallery. This led him to work with Gude in Karlsruhe, Germany, in 1865. On his way both there and back, he studied paintings by Constable and used a more painterly technique especially for views of Ireland, for example Irish Landscape (1865; Cleveland, OH, Mus. A.). Gude’s influence in Germany was very strong, when Wyant painted hard-edged, but broad and expansive landscapes such as Tennessee (formerly The Mohawk Valley) (1866; New York, Met.).
