Harry Fenn

Harry Fenn (1845–1911) was an English-born American illustrator, primarily of landscapes.

He settled in Montclair, New Jersey around 1865. [Schwabsky, Barry. [http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9502E3DC173FF935A25751C0A961958260 "A Haven for Creative Talents, Then and Now"] , "The New York Times", February 16, 1997. Accessed November 11, 2007. "Inness was hardly the first artist to settle in Montclair. Apparently that title is shared by two English-born illustrators, Harry Fenn and Charles Parsons, who arrived in the 1860's."] Fenn and is best known for the engravings he contributed to the "Picturesque America" collection edited by William Cullen Bryant (1872). He illustrated a number of books as well, including John Greenleaf Whittier's "Snowbound" (1868) and "Ballads of New England" (1870). Later in life he also painted some watercolors.
