John Williamson

Tappan Zee, from Glenwood
Western Landscape with Tepees
Mountainous Landscape

John Williamson is an American Impressionism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.

John Williamson painted quiet American landscapes in oil. His 1872 view of the Tappan Zee from Glenwood shows low hills, calm water, and a distant sailboat—typical of 19th-century Hudson River scenes. In Western Landscape with Tepees he framed tepees against soft hills, blending frontier life with gentle light. His Mountainous Landscape piles layered peaks under a wide sky. If you like calm skies and open spaces, swipe to see his Tappan Zee, from Glenwood.
