Excerpt from George Inness, N. A: A Memorial of the Student, the Artist, and the Man Young Inness's parents settled in Newark. N. J., while he was a.boy. In the latter city, at the age of about fourteen years, he received some, apparently not veryregular. Lessons in drawing from an old drawing-master named Barker.
