- RICHARD HAYLEY LEVER (AMERICAN, 1876-1958)
RICHARD HAYLEY LEVER (AMERICAN, 1876-1958) "MENEMSHA, MARTHA'S VINEYARD" Watercolor on paper. Signed 'Hayley Lever' (lower right) and dated '1931'.
Richard Hayley Lever (American, 1876-1958)
Born in Adelaide, Australia in 1876, Hayley Lever was known for his town-shore landscapes and still-life painting in a style that combined impressionism with vivid colors and strong lines of realism - post impressionism. In his use of color, he was deeply influenced by Vincent Van Gogh. He freely explored numerous styles based on impressionism but was never locked into any particular style.
He showed early art talent and traveled to England in 1893. He studied art in London and then painted at an artists' colony in Cornwall on the seacoast of St. Ives where he began his seacoast paintings. He received much attention in Europe for these works. In 1908, he did a series of paintings called "Van Gogh's Hospital, Holland" expressing the profound influence he felt of that artist.
Lever came to America in 1911, encouraged by American artist Ernest Lawson whom he knew in France, and was soon counted among the most widely exhibited artists in New York City.

Many of his works clearly show the love and empathy he had for his fellow man. He actively painted along the south shore in Brooklyn, Long Island, Staten Island, Vermont, the Catskill Mountains, the Berkshires, as well as Rockport, Massachusetts, and its environs. He is well known for his beautiful landscapes, seascapes, portraits, still lifes and nautical themes. He primarily worked in oils, but also worked in watercolor, etching, and lithography.
