scavenger hunt

This artist was an intense anti-semite.

What year did Eastman mraket his box camera?

His paintings showed peasants in a realistic manner rather than a glamorizing their situations.

His early works were about the civil war, his later works were about the sea.

This artist grew up in Oslo, Norway.

This artist was said to be "...passionately in love with passion."

This arist was his studio assisstant.

There is some confusion about this artist's first/middle name.

This artist worked as a customs officer.

This artist attended Jefferson Medical College while attending the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts.
