{"title":"Martin Johnson Heade","description":"\u003cp\u003eMartin Johnson Heade (August 11, 1819 – September 4, 1904) was an American painter known for his salt marsh landscapes, seascapes, and depictions of hummingbirds, often depicted with orchids, as well as lotus blossoms still lifes. His painting style and subject matter, while derived from the \u003ca class=\"artist-bio-link\" href=\"\/collections\/romanticism\"\u003eromanticism\u003c\/a\u003e of the time, are regarded by art historians as a significant departure from those of his peers. Heade was born in Lumberville, Pennsylvania, the son of a storekeeper. He studied with \u003ca class=\"artist-bio-link\" href=\"\/collections\/edward-hicks\"\u003eEdward Hicks\u003c\/a\u003e, and possibly with \u003ca class=\"artist-bio-link\" href=\"\/collections\/thomas-hicks\"\u003eThomas Hicks\u003c\/a\u003e. His earliest works were produced during the 1840s and were chiefly portraits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHe travelled to Europe several times as a young man, became an itinerant artist on American shores, and exhibited in Philadelphia in 1841 and New York in 1843. Friendships with artists of the \u003ca class=\"artist-bio-link\" href=\"\/collections\/hudson-river-school\"\u003eHudson River School\u003c\/a\u003e led to an interest in landscape art. In 1863, he planned to publish a volume of Brazilian hummingbirds and tropical flowers, but the project was eventually abandoned. He travelled to the tropics several times thereafter, and continued to paint birds and flowers. Heade married in 1883 and moved to St. Augustine, Florida.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHis chief works from this period were Floridian landscapes and flowers, particularly magnolias laid upon velvet cloth. His best known works are depictions of light and shadow upon the salt marshes of New England.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHis style took its cues from \u003ca class=\"artist-bio-link\" href=\"\/collections\/frederic-edwin-church\"\u003eFrederic Edwin Church\u003c\/a\u003e. Among his canonical works are \u003cem\u003eSunset: A Scene in Brazil\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eSunset, Haywagon in the Distance\u003c\/em\u003e. He worked primarily in landscape painting and marine art. His work is rooted in Luminism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Martin Johnson Heade\",\"birthDate\":\"1819-08-11T00:00:00Z\",\"deathDate\":\"1904-09-04T00:00:00Z\",\"nationality\":\"United States\",\"jobTitle\":\"painter\",\"description\":\"Martin Johnson Heade (August 11, 1819 – September 4, 1904) was an American painter known for his salt marsh landscapes, seascapes, and depictions of hummingbirds, often depicted with orchids, as well as lotus blossoms still lifes.
