Arthur Prince Spear

1879-1959

Arthur Prince Spear is known for his imaginary paintings of nymphs, fauns and under-sea dwellers of an imaginary world of a no question personal nature. Arthur Spear could be considered an "American Impressionist" yet he remains in a unique position...His art cannot be thus easily classified and Spear belongs in a scarce group of painters who have been in the minority of any generation in the records of American Art.
