The Art of Alfred Hutty: Woodstock to Charleston

Come quickly, have found heaven.” Supposedly master painter and printmaker Alfred Hutty wired those words to his wife upon visiting Charleston for the first time in 1920. Hutty—originally from Woodstock, New York—established himself in the city, becoming an integral part of the community of artists who launched the Charleston Renaissance.
