At the Museum of Fine Arts (in Boston), Farnsworth Art Museum (Rockland, Maine) or at the High Museum of Art (Atlanta, Georgia), you can find something really special about this painter born in Cincinnati, Ohio, that had studied with Frank Duveneck. His childhood was spent in Cincinnati, where – at the age of twelve – JOSEPH DECAMP began to sketch crayon copies of published lithographics. In 1873 he began a six-year study at the McMicken School of Design at the University of Cincinnati with academic painter Thomas S. Noble. At the age of nineteen, he also taught private drawing classes for women in Chillicothe (Ohio).  

In the second half of the 1870s, he went to the Royal Academy of Munich, but JOSEPH DECAMP spent time also in Florence (Italy), returning to Boston in 1883, where he focused on figure painting. In 1897 he was a founder of the “Ten American Painters” (a group of American Impressionists). He was known for his figure paintings of women (in interiors and in nude poses). In 1900, after spending summer time in Gloucester, he became much more committed to Impressionism. From 1903 (until his death), he was a faculty member at Massachusetts Normal Art School, teaching painting from the living model and portraiture. He also taught at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. In 1891, he married Edith Franklin Baker, and they had four children, all served as models for a number of his paintings. A 1904 fire in his studio destroyed several of his early paintings. He died into a February day in Boca Grande, Florida
