Gordon M. McCouch
American painter and printmaker, 1885–1962
Disillusioned with his oeuvre, McCouch eventually left the practice of art, noting in 1920:
My few illustrations were all done over ten years ago, and I never felt them to be of sufficient importance to warrant keeping records. As for my paintings, they are, with a few exceptions, destroyed.
During his career, McCouch traveled widely in Europe. He was one of many artists who was attracted to the Locarno region of Switzerland, where he exhibited. His work is held by the Ascona Museum of Modern Art. He died in Locarno.
