Whitney Myron Hubbard
“Hill View”

Circa 1930

About the Item

Original oil on heavy cardboard (old chocolate candy box cover) of a hill view landscape by Whitney Myron Hubbard. Signed lower left. Signed and titled verso. Circa 1930. Condition is very good. Framed. Overall framed measurements are 9 by 11 inches. Provenance: A Long Island New York estate. He was born in Middleton, Connecticut in 1875, his family moved to Greenport, Long Island — we believe in 1888 — but Hubbard returned to Middleton to attend and graduate from Wesleyan University. From 1899 to 1902, Hubbard taught school on Long Island but decided he wanted to be a full-time painter. Hubbard became a member of the Art Students League in New York, and his teacher was Frank Vincent DuMond, who introduced Hubbard to plein air (outdoor) painting during summers spent in Lyme, Conn. It is said he may have studied with Childe Hassam, who arrived in 1903. Hubbard exhibited at the National Academy of Design, the Chicago Art Institute and the Brooklyn Museum of Art, but the Great Depression hampered his career. It is reported he was head of the art department at the Suffolk Conservatory of Music and Art from 1935 to 1940, and he and his wife lived a simple life in Greenport until Hubbard’s death in 1965.
