BiographyStokely Webster was born in Evanston, IL, in 1912 and died in Connecticut in 2001. Webster spent a year in France at the age of 10. He saw Monet at work in his garden at Giverny and saw his paintings at the Luxembourg Palace. This visit inspired Webster to become a painter. He began studying in 1922 with Lawton Parker, an American artist who had studied with Whistler and Gerome. Webster most frequently worked in the Impressionist style, holding to traditional approaches even as post-World War II modernism and post-modernism dominated the art world.
