Lucy C. Huntington
Lucy C. Huntington is a Romanticism painter. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Lucy Huntington stitched scenes with silk and sequins in the early 1800s. She embroidered scenes on fabric, like the silk-thread “Hector Taking Leave of His Family” from 1810, blending thread, paint, and sparkle. The work shows a quiet moment—Hector saying goodbye—rendered in miniature stitches. Look for the tiny metallic threads that catch the light. Tap the embroidery to zoom in on the soldier’s face or Helen’s folded hands.
