Houghton Cranford Smith (1887-1983)

Smith was born in New Jersey, studied at The Art Students League and the Cape Cod School of Art, then in France with Andre Lhote and other respected artists of the time. He traveled extensively to France, Spain, Chile, Bermuda and across the United States. After the death of his first wife, he met and married Laura Gilbert Williams from Lancaster, SC in 1941. They spent several summers vacationing at Pawley's Island and this retrospective includes a number of low country scenes as well as paintings from his other travels. Smith's works are in private and public collections including The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
