Harry Van der Weyden was born in Boston in 1868. At nineteen, he studied at the Slade School in London. Later he would go on to study at the Académie Julian in Paris under Jean-Paul Laurens, Benjamin Constant, and Jules-Joseph Lefebvre. In 1891 at the Salon he exhibited two landscape paintings. He is most well known for his impressionist landscape paintings and possibly was related to Flemish Old Master Rogier van der Weyden. Most of Van der Weyden’s paintings are in private collections, but also found in the Museum of Montreuil-sur-Mer and Blérancourt Museum.
