John La Farge knew everyone. He studied in Newport with William Morris Hunt. (William and Henry James were part of the group.) He painted, did watercolors, designed interiors for churches and reinvented the stain-glass window. He tutored Helena and Maria Oakey. (He was a ardent flower painter and encouraged both women to paint flowers.) |
