Matilda Browne

Matilda Browne (May 8, 1869 – November 3, 1947) was an American Impressionist artiste noted for her flower paintings and her farm and cattle scenes. Born in Newark, New Jersey, she was a child prodigy who received early art training from her artist-neighbor, Thomas Moran.

Matilda Browne was responsive in Greenwich, Connecticut, New York City,
and Old Lyme, Connecticut, where she was affiliated in the same way as the art colony centered at the Florence Griswold home. She was the only girl at the Old Lyme Colony who was taken seriously as a painter by her male colleagues, and she was considered an important zealot of the Old Lyme group.
