Willard Leroy Metcalf was an American artist born in Lowell, Massachusetts. After early figure painting and illustration, he became prominent as a landscape painter and was one of the Ten American Painters, who seceded from the Society of American Artists. In 1893, Metcalf became a member of the American Watercolor Society. Generally associated with American Impressionism, he is also remembered for his New England landscapes and his influential years at the Cornish Art Colony.
Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
