American (1884-1974)

Eastern Point Lighthouse, Gloucester , 1912

Leon Kroll created this view of the Gloucester lighthouse shortly after his return from Paris after having absorbed the vivid colors of Post-Impressionism.

Painted in broad strokes of high-key color, this sun-drenched New England summer vista, with its sparkling white tower and rippling flag, is a beacon of American optimism.
