Mountain Scene With Sheep
By Edward Gay

Edward Gay was born in Ireland in 1837. Along with his parents he rode the great wave of Irish immigration following the Great Famine. The family settled in Albany, NY where Gay’s artistic talents were noticed and encouraged by local artists James and William Hart and George Boughton. Though by 1858 he had already exhibited in the National Academy of Design in NYC, in 1862 he traveled to Europe and studied in Germany under Johann Schirmer and Karl Friedrich Lessing. He returned to the United States in 1864. In 1867 he and his family moved to Mt. Vernon, NY. Here he painted numerous views of the bucolic landscapes surrounding his newfound home. He also painted a number of scenes of South Carolina, where his daughter had moved after her marriage. In 1905 he built a summer home in Cragsmoor in upstate New York. He also made frequent trips to Europe to paint. Though he began painting in the classic Hudson River School style, Gay eventually painted in the Barbizon manner. He was a member of the Century Association and the Union League Club of New York. His works are in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York Historical Society, and Westchester Woman’s Club, Brigham Young University, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Union League Club of NYC and many others.
