George Herbert McCord

George Herbert McCord was an American painter known for his luminous landscapes and seascapes.

McCord studied at the National Academy of Design in New York and later in Paris under the guidance of the French Barbizon School. He became known for his ability to capture the changing effects of light and atmosphere in his landscapes and seascapes. He was particularly interested in the coastal areas of Long Island and the North Shore of Massachusetts, which he depicted in many of his paintings.

McCord was a member of several prominent art organizations, including the Society of American Artists and the American Watercolor Society. He exhibited regularly at the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and the Paris Salon.

Today, McCord's work can be found in the collections of museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C. He is considered one of the leading American landscape painters of the late 19th century and his work continues to be admired for its luminosity and skillful rendering of light and atmosphere.
