Like his father, the Hudson River school painter Lemuel M. Wiles, Irving Ramsay Wiles taught others to paint while constantly honing his own skills. Having studied under William Merritt Chase, Irving's work encompassed nearly all mediums and by the early 20th century he achieved a notoriety that allowed him, during his own lifetime, to be continually featured in art exhibitions both in America and around the world. This title provides the first comprehensive resource on the artist along with a detailed biography. Today his works hang in Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the New York City National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C., the Museum of the National Academy of Design, New York City, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington D.C.
