Robert Henry Logan (American, 1874-1942) House Behind Lake Signed "R. Logan." l.l., identified on a label from the Roger King Gallery of Fine Art, Newport, affixed to the reverse. Oil on canvas, 16 x 13 in. (40.6 x 33.0 cm), framed. Condition: Pinhole punctures, abrasions, surface grime. N. B. American Impressionist Robert Henry Logan was born in Waltham, Massachusetts in 1874. As a young man, he enrolled in Brown and Nichols School in Cambridge and soon after studied with Frank Benson and Edmund Tarbell at the Museum of Fine Arts School in Boston. After winning the school's top drawing prize in the early 1890s, Logan left to study in Paris at the Sorbonne and the Académie Julian. While in Paris, he met and studied with American artist Robert Henri, who introduced Logan to James Wilson Morrice from Canada. Morrice and Logan painted together on their trips to various European countries, including Spain, Germany, Morocco, England, Italy, and Belgium. In 1905, Logan received the Prix de Rome and exhibited at the Salon of the Société des Artistes Françaises in Paris. Five years later, Logan arrived in Massachusetts to open his own studio in both Waltham and Rockport. Logan had little interest in exhibiting his art, secluding his paintings in his son's home until his death in 1942. Decades later, his paintings were finally rediscovered and included in exhibits at Newport Art Association in 1979.
