	In Monets Light - Theodore Robinson at Giverny at the Phoenix Art Museum - A Review by Donald Goddard
		Theodore Robinson visited France for the first time in 1875 at the age of 23 and stayed there through 1879, studying in Paris with Karl Lehmann, Emile-Auguste Carolus-Duran, Jean-Léon Gérome, Alexandre Cabanel, and probably Benjamin Constant; entering his work in the Paris Salon; and traveling in France and Italy.
		Many of the people Robinson portrayed lived there and were very much part of the countryside he adopted--mostly women, at the well, gathering wood, sewing, gathering fruit, washing clothes at the river--and they are indeed aspects of the scenes, as in most Impressionist paintings.
		Robinson learned a great deal from Monet's serial paintings of motifs under changing conditions of light, his paintings of haystacks and poplars, but took the idea in quite a different direction.

	AIC Art Explorer : AIC : Text : Theodore Robinson's The Valley of Arconville, c. 1887
		Theodore Robinson was among the first of many American artists to paint in the French village of Giverny, where Claude Monet had rented property beginning in 1883.
		Although Robinson was trained in the academic tradition in New York City and at the Ecole des beaux-arts, Paris, he had already begun to experiment with more diffuse, plein-air painting techniques in the artists' colonies at Grez and Barbizon before going to Giverny in the late 1880s.
		Robinson's spontaneous, active handling in these areas is balanced by the more deliberately placed, flat patches of color that convey the solidity of the houses in the valley below.

	AIC Art Explorer : AIC : Text : Theodore Robinson's The Valley of Arconville, c. 1887
		An introduction to Robinson, one of the first American artists to paint in Giverny, France and its environs, and to his painting The Valley of Arconville in which he integrated the methods of the region's most famous artist, Claude Monet.
		Robinson captured both momentary effects, grasses and wildflowers blowing in the breeze, clouds moving across the sky, and solid structure, the geometry of the houses in the valley and the woman's serene figure.
		Theodore Robinson is one of those who have really gained a good deal by study of impressionistic methods.

		Robinson did not stay long in Carolus-Duran's atelier and there are indications that their student-teacher relationship was not particularly compatible; perhaps Duran's style was overly involved with painterly effects.
		Robinson returned to the subject of a figure with a dog in a picture be painted in France.
		Robinson's objections to transforming Giverny into a popular artist colony may have been due to his own social reticence; he did not shun company, but was perfectly content to be alone.

	THEODORE ROBINSON 1852
		Like many of his fellow American artists, Theodore Robinson received his early training in the United States; first, briefly at the Chicago School of Design and later at the National Academy of Design in New York, prior to his first trip abroad in 1876.
		A recurring theme in Robinson's production during his Giverny period is the young peasant woman, head bowed, absorbed in her sewing as she tends COWS.
		Prior to his early death, Robinson, often called America's first Impressionist, successfully achieved a balance in his art between the American realist tradition which had always been present and the Impressionist concern for the elements of light and atmosphere.
