The American painter
Andrew Wyeth (1917-) is famous for his interpretations of the
people and the austere landscapes of Maine and Pennsylvania.
Born in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, he was trained by
his father, the illustrator and muralist Newell Convers Wyeth.
Andrew Wyeth held his first one-man show at the age of twenty
and obtained an immediate success. He uses mainly watercolor
and tempera. His colors are predominantly shades of brown and
gray. One of Wyeth's most-known works is Christina's World.
In 1963 Andrew Wyeth received the U.S. Presidential Medal
of Freedom, and in the year 1970 he was the first living
artist to whom was accorded an exhibition in the White House.
