Theodore Robinson (1852-1896) was an American painter best known for his Impressionist [[landscapes]]. In 1876 he left for two years in France, where he studied with Emile-Auguste Carolus-Duran and Jean-Léon Gerôme in Paris... after 1888 he spent most of his time in Giverny working with [[Claude Monet]].
