Edward Cucuel - Woman Reclining By A Lake

Edward Cucuel (San Francisco, California, 1875 – Pasadena, California, 1954) was an Impressionist painter of genre and figures in landscapes, often using his family members for models rather than professionals. A specialty was using a vibrant palette and rich impasto to depict women in sun-dappled landscape settings. At the age of fourteen, he enrolled at the School of Design in San Francisco, and three years later, in 1892, he went to Paris and studied at the Academie Julian.
