Artist
Mark William Fisher (1841–1923) was an American-born painter who became a leading figure in British landscape art. Born in Boston, Massachusetts, he studied in Paris under Gleyre and was influenced by the Barbizon school. Fisher settled in England in 1872, where his pastoral scenes and deft handling of natural light gained wide acclaim. He exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy, becoming a Royal Academician in 1919, and his work is held in major UK collections including the Tate.
