Description
Maurice Prendergast (1858–1924) was an American Post-Impressionist painter known for his vibrant use of color and decorative style. Born in St. John's, Newfoundland, and raised in Boston, he studied in Paris, where he was influenced by the French Impressionists and the Nabi movement. Prendergast’s works often depicted leisurely urban scenes, parks, and beaches, characterized by bold color, rhythmic patterns, and a mosaic-like quality. A member of "The Eight," he helped modernize American art by embracing avant-garde techniques. His unique style bridged the gap between Impressionism and modernism, making him a pivotal figure in early 20th-century American art
