D. Maitland Armstrong [1836-1918] was born in Newburg, NY, attended Hartford's Trinity College, and studied art in Paris and Rome. He is best known for his decorative paintings, including interiors such as the one offered here (probably one of a series comissioned by Century magazine), murals, and stained glass windows. He was Director of the American section at the Paris Exposition of 1900, subsequently receiving the Legion of Honor. He was an early member of the American Artists Society, founded in 1877, and in 1906 was elected to the National Academy of Design.
