The Impressionist movement in the United States was dominated by the painting of Mary Cassatt (1844-1926), [[William Merritt Chase]] (1849-1916), Theodore Robinson (1852-1896), J. Alden Weir (1852-1919), John H Twachtman (1853-1902), Willard Metcalf (1858-1925), Childe Hassam (1859-1935) and Robert Henri (1865-1929). [http://www.visual-arts-cork.com/genres/impressionist-landscape-painting.htm] American "Impressionists" tended to have more of an academic background than their French counterparts. [http://www.visual-arts-cork.com/history-of-art/american-impressionism.htm] [[James Whistler]] (1834–1903) and [[John Singer Sargent]] (1856-1925) also participated in this movement.

In 1897, Twachtman became a founding member of the Ten American Painters (or "The Ten"), a group of artists who seceded from the Society of American Artists and exhibited together for the next twenty years. [http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=11532686]
