Thomas Waterman Wood (Vermont 1823-1903) Portrait of a young man oil on canvas oil on canvas - 30 x 24" 34 x 28" as framed. Waterman Wood determined his life’s course at an early age. He first pursued studies in portraiture with Chester Harding in Boston and then established a New York portrait studio in 1853. Beginning in 1855, Wood worked as an itinerant painter in Quebec, Washington, DC, and Baltimore until 1858, when he and his wife departed for a year-long sojourn in Paris. While abroad, the artist copied old masters and refined his technique before returning to America in 1859.
