Gouache (c.1916) by Henry Lyman Sayen.
Henry Lyman Saÿen worked as an artist and scientist throughout his career. He acquired several patents for his inventions, including a new type of X-ray tube and a steel billiard ball. He traveled to Paris in 1906 to create illustrations for a New York department store and joined Henri Matisse's class. Saÿen was one of the first painters to introduce modern art to Philadelphia's conservative culture, and his large vivid depictions of landscapes and still lifes shocked many people. One department store assistant even told the artist that "if you paint like that, you will never put shoes on your child's feet." World War I forced Saÿen to return to Philadelphia, where he spent his weekends at his friend Carl Newman's summer home, painting the landscape of Huntington Valley.
