Hotchkiss-Fyler Collection: Painting

Picture
Electa Susannah Hotchkiss by Ammi Phillips(click to enlarge)
Paintings in the Hotchkiss-Fyler House Museum include works by several American painters. Perhaps most notable are the six portraits of Hotchkiss family members painted by Ammi Phillips.

Also of interest are still life paintings by George Lawrence Nelson, and landscapes by Connecticut 
impressionist, Winfield Scott Clime. An early work by Eanger Irving Couse is also on view, as is a portrait of Mary Fyler by Albert Herter.
