American artist, rancher and philanthropist
Abraham Archibald Anderson
Abraham Archibald Anderson (1846 – 1940) was an American artist, rancher and philanthropist .
Biography [ edit ]
Anderson was born in New Jersey as one of ten children of William Anderson (1814 – 1887), a civil engineer turned Dutch Reformed Church Reverend, and Sarah Louise Ryerson (1818–1907). After an initial career as a businessman, on June 15, 1876 Anderson married Elizabeth Milbank , the reform-minded daughter of the investor Jeremiah Milbank and an heiress to his considerable fortune.
Beginning in the mid-1870s, Anderson studied art in Paris, first with Léon Bonnat , then under Alexandre Cabanel , Fernand Cormon , Auguste Rodin , and Raphaël Collin .[1] [2] Thomas Alva Edison is in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C.
In 1890, Anderson organized the American Art Association in Paris, a beneficial mutual-aid society for American art students. He was its president until 1912; it lasted until 1932.[1]
Portrait of Thomas Edison (1890), National Portrait Gallery Anderson developed the Bryant Park Studios in 1900–1901.
In 1900, Anderson commissioned the 10-story Bryant Park Studios building from the New York society architect Charles A. Rich . Situated on the south side of Bryant Park , its generous windows and high-ceilings were designed specifically for artists. Anderson maintained his own suite on the top floor until the end of his life.[2] [3] Edward Steichen , Fernand Léger , Robert Henri , Katherine Sophie Dreier , J. C. Leyendecker , Jo Davidson , Florine Stettheimer , Edward Suydam, Gari Melchers , Stella Marks , John La Gatta , Julian Rix , Rodrigues Ottolengui , Haskell Coffin , Leon Gordon , Irving Penn , and
Kurt Seligmann .[4]
Returning to the United States in the summers, Anderson bought land in northwestern Wyoming and developed it into the Palette Ranch. He personally designed William "Buffalo Bill " Cody's guest ranch Pahaska Tepee , and his own home, Anderson Lodge . That lodge became the first administrative headquarters for the Yellowstone Forest Reserve in 1902, as President Theodore Roosevelt named Anderson as the first Special Superintendent of Forest Reserves. Anderson played a significant role in the preservation and development of the Yellowstone region.[5]
His autobiography, Experiences and Impressions , was published in 1933. Anderson's daughter, Eleanor Campbell , founded the Judson Health Center in 1921.
