DescriptionBorn in the United States Mark Fisher was included with the Irish School of painting when the gallery first opened in 1908 but is more commonly regarded as a British artist. George Moore wrote that his art ‘ acquired its character in France, all its joyous lights and shades, its singing quality, he owes to France.’ Fisher became friends with the artist George Clausen having met him during the 1890’s in the village of Widdington, Essex.
