Abbott Fuller Graves (1859–1936) was an American painter known for his vibrant floral still lifes and picturesque garden scenes. Born in Massachusetts, Graves studied in Boston and later in Paris, where he was influenced by the French Impressionists. His work is characterised by bright, natural light, loose brushwork, and a strong sense of colour, often featuring blooming gardens, women in sunlit settings, and charming outdoor spaces. Graves was also a respected teacher and illustrator, contributing to the popularity of Impressionism in America. His paintings celebrate the beauty of nature and everyday life with warmth and elegance.
