Lilla Cabot Perry
American painter, 1848–1933
When she returned to Boston in 1890, Perry was at the vanguard of American impressionism and she helped to promote the style through exhibitions of her own work and others in Boston and nationally. She continued to paint impressionist canvasses during a three-year residence in Japan, where her husband was teaching. After 1905 Perry concentrated on portraiture, as she needed commissions to support her family. Between 1889 and 1909 she spent nine summers at Giverny and developed a close friendship with Monet.
