Julian In Paris With Adolphe: REDFIELD, Edward Willis, American landscape painter: b. Bridgeville, Del., Dec. 18, 1869; d. Center Bridge, Pa., Oct. 19, 1965. He studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and at the Academie Julian in Paris with Adolphe W. Bouguereau and Tony Robert-Fleury. In spite of the academic tradition in which he was trained, Redfield, under the influence of the Impressionists, evolved an individual manner of rendering the momentary aspects of a landscape scene, producing his brightly colored and heavily brushed paintings at a single sitting.
He in turn was succeeded by his cousin Julian 'in full Flavius Claudius Julianus, r. 361-363), known as the Apostate because of his abandonment of Christianity and his vain attempt to re-:;tablish pagan worship. Julian defeated the Alamanni in 357 and checked the barbarian advance on the Rhine; he was killed in a battle against the Persians.
HAWTHORNE, Julian (1846-1934), American author. The son of Nathaniel Hawthorne, he was horn in Boston, Mass., on June 22, 1846. Between the ages of 7 and 14, Julian lived first in Liverpool, England, where his father was American consul, and then in Italy. In 1864-1868 he attended the Lowell Scientific School at Harvard, and later studied civil engineering in Dresden, Germany. He was an engineer in the New York dock department in 1870-1872. |
