Edward Mitchell Bannister
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Edward Mitchell Bannister was an American painter in the style of the French Barbizon school who painted the New England landscape. With few exceptions (he won a bronze medal at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial) Bannister was largely unknown because of the virulent racism of the times.
