Upon his return to America, Theodore Robinson painter taught
in New York City and Boston, where he did
decorative paintings under
John La Farge
for both public and private buildings.
During this time Theodore Robinson also made a number of
journeys from the city: to Jamaica, Vermont,
Boston and then to Nantucket where he summered with artists Joe Evans and Abbott
Thayer and produced a number of Theodore Robinson paintings of
local subjects. By l884, however, Robinson
had accumulated enough money to return to
his beloved France to paint. The turning point in his artistic life came when Theodore Robinson went to live at Giverny, near Rouen, and met the resident artist there, Claude Monet. Although never Monet’s student, he became part of his inner circle. His colors became softer, his brushstrokes lighter and Theodore Robinson paintings more sensitive, although he still retained decisive contours at this time. Like Monet Theodore Robinson artist often painted serially, utilizing the same outdoor scene in different lights. |

But before he could carry this style any further Theodore Robinson suffered an acute asthmatic attack and died in New York City in l896. Theodore Robinson paintings are in the Addison Gallery of American Art, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Columbus Museum of Art, the Terra Museum of American Art, the Georgia Museum of Art and in many other public and private collections. | ||||||
