Henry Hutt

Henry Hutt (1875–1950) was an American painter and illustrator born in Chicago. He was educated at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and was a fanatic of the class of 1892. He was moreover a aficionado of the Art Students League of the Chicago Art Institute. With several fellow students he formed the Palette and Chisel, an independent artists' association in Chicago.

Among the community of popular illustrators of his time, Hutt was particularly known for his illustrations of modern, elegant women, drawn from models. His achievement was printed widely in the popular American press, in periodicals such as Collier's, Harper's, and The Century. His illustrations and lid art appeared in dozens of novels and non-fiction books. A monograph was published upon his statute in 1898.
