An Artist’s Studio

This week, while on vacation, I had the opportunity to visit the studio of NC Wyeth in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. The studio is part of the Brandywine Art Museum and can be visited by private tour. The studio has been kept just as it was when NC was painting before his death in a car accident. NC Wyeth was a prominent illustrator and muralist during the first half of the 20th century and the father of one of America’s most famous artist, Andrew Wyeth. Here are some images from this studio.
