Most noted for his paintings of forest interiors, Roswell Shurtleff settled in Hartford, Connecticut but spent his summers painting his signature works in the Adirondacks at Keene Valley, New York. He and John Lee Fitch successfully encouraged other artists to join them including Winslow Homer, J Alden Weir, James Smillie, and Alexander Wyant. He did two Western illustrations for Albert Richardson's book, Beyond the Mississippi. He also did paintings of animals, a subject he abandoned after taking up landscape painting.
