From Askart.com: George Wharton Edwards was born in Fair Haven, Connecticut, in 1859, and died in Greenwich, Connecticut in 1950.  He was a painter and author of books regarding American history and European customs.  He lived in Paris prior to 1892, New York City (1892-1902); Plainfield, New Jersey; and Greenwich, Connecticut; and was known for his unique handling of impressionism and for his marine paintings of fishermen, lobstermen and boats along the Monhegan shoreline.

Edwards was educated at Antwerp and Paris (1881-1884).  In Paris, he studied under Eugene Fayen and in Cancale.  By 1890, he was painting on Monhegan.

He was an Associate of the National Academy and a member of the American Water Color Society; National Institute of Arts and Letters; Allied American Artists and Painters and the Scultpors' Gallery Association.  From 1898-1903 Edwards was Art Director for Collier's and later was manager of the Art Department for the American Bank Note Company (1904-1912).  He won medals in Boston (1884 and 1890) for drawings and repeated his success with paintings at the 1901 Buffalo Exposition; the 1902 South Carolina Exposition; the Barcelona Exposition; and he won the King Albert gold medal in 1920; the Golden Palms of the French Academy in 1921 and more.
