Matthew Daly, a Cincinnati native, began his artistic academic studies at the McMicken School of Design, under the tutelage of highly sought-after artists Thomas S. Noble and Vincent Nowottny, and later under the formidable Frank Duveneck, whom Daly considered his most significant source of influence, and who is credited with instilling Daly’s paint application with the Impressionist aesthetic. Daly was employed as an artist for Rookwood Pottery Company from 1883 to 1903, before becoming the director and chief designer for the United States Playing Card Company for nearly thirty years. In 1890, Daly helped found the Cincinnati Art Club.
