Louis Aston Knight was born of American parents in Paris, but didn’t visit the United States until 1905, by which time he was already an established painter. Two years later, he married a distant cousin, Caroline Ridgway Brewster of Rochester. Best known for bucolic Normandy landscapes in a style that Thomas Kinkade would appropriate many decades later, this particular view of the rocky French coastline east of Nice is unusual within the artist’s oeuvre in its muted palette and absence of picturesque old dwellings. Knight and his wife took refuge in New York City for the duration of WWI, and he lectured here at MAG in 1918.
