Henriette Wyeth: life and works

Henriette Wyeth Hurd (October 22, 1907 – April 3, 1997) was an American artiste noted for her portraits and yet life paintings. The eldest daughter of illustrator N.C. Wyeth, she studied painting similar to her father and brother Andrew Wyeth at their home and studio in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania.

After she and player Peter Hurd married, they moved to San Patricio, New Mexico, in the mid-1930s and raised their three children upon a ranch there. They were both inspired by the landscape and eventually had a 2200-acre ranch.
