Edward B. Gay (1837 – 1928) was a prolific and widely exhibited American landscape painter best known for his luminous scenes of the New York countryside. He was an active lifelong member of the National Academy of Design, achieving full Academician status in 1907.

Beginning in 1898, Gay made numerous trips to South Carolina to visit his daughter Vivien, who had married James Lide Coker, Jr. of Hartsville. Several years later, his son Duncan also married into the Coker family. Because of these intermarriages, many of Gay’s paintings became dispersed into private and museum collections in the South.

This exhibit chronicles the artist’s stylistic development and focuses on its parallels with emerging philosophies in American art from the late 19th to early 20th centuries.

Edward Gay: An American Landscape Painter is made possible through the generosity of the Trustees of the Florence Museum.
