NC Wyeth's home

NEWELL CONVERS (N. C.) WYETH (1882-1945) is best known for his outstanding book illustrations in Scribner’s Illustrated Classics such as Treasure Island, The Boy's King Arthur and Robinson Crusoe.
His rich, robust paintings have charmed children and adults alike for generations.
In his studio, in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, N. C. taught three of his five children and two sons-in-law to paint.

HENRIETTE WYETH (1907-1997) N. C. Wyeth's first child, is considered by many art scholars to be one of the great women painters of the 20th century.

CAROLYN WYETH (1909-1994) the second daughter of N. C. Wyeth demonstrated a talent for drawing at an early age.

NATHANIEL C. WYETH (1911–1990) was an American mechanical engineer and inventor.
He is best known for creating Polyethylene teraphthalate that could withstand the pressure of carbonated liquids.
He was the inventor of the two-liter soda bottle!

ANN WYETH McCOY (1915-2005) grew up immersed in music. A musician and composer, she married artist John W. McCoy

ANDREW NEWELL WYETH (1917-2009), the youngest son of N. C. Wyeth, is the best known artist in the family.



The north window of NC Wyeth's studio.
The interior of his studio was mind blowing!
Lighting was superb and his artifacts were fun and amazing!!!
Too bad that interior photos were forbidden :(
