Arthur Wesley Dow is recognized as one of the great proponents of the Arts and Crafts movement that swept America as the 19th century came to a close. Going beyond merely advocating simplicity of form, Dow began to infuse his art with Japanese conventions as a way to express his ideas. Achieving quite a following in his own lifetime, Dow's work is liberally distributed among the most prestigious art collections in the United States. His work is held by such institutions as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Boston Museum of Fine Arts; Columbia University, New York; Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C.
