A Connecticut Place. Weir Farm National Historic Site takes you back to the landscape and time of 1882 when J. Alden Weir first set eyes on the Brachville Farm.
The 153 acres he purchased for ten dollars and a painting would inspire hundreds more paintings,drawings and prints by this important artist.
The farm also drew many other prominent turn-of-the-century artists, including Childe Hassam, John Twachtman, Theodore Robinson, John Singer Sargent and Albert Pinkham Ryder, who came to paint, fish and enjoy each other's company.
Julian Alden Weir (1852-1919) is best known today as a founder and leader of the American Impressionist movement.
The meadows, stone walls, and wooded wetlands at Branchville inspired some of his greatest works.
