埃德溫·懷特
美國歷史畫家與教育家
埃德溫·懷特是一位美國畫家。埃德溫·懷特曾在巴黎、杜塞道夫、羅馬和佛羅倫斯學習，後來在紐約的國家設計學院任教。除了師從多位不同的美國和歐洲繪畫大師外，他還在紐約市的一所醫學院聽講座學習解剖學。他就讀於阿默斯特學院，並於1856年底獲得文學碩士學位。 懷特的作品主要存放於耶魯大學、大都會藝術博物館、波士頓美術博物館和紐約歷史學會的收藏中。 懷特職業生涯中的一個重要時刻發生在1855年10月，當時他在巴黎遇見了畫家桑福德·羅賓遜·吉福德，並告訴吉福德他即將返回紐約，身無分文，沒有委託，可能不得不重新從事肖像畫創作。然而，當懷特回到紐約工作室後，他開始創作他的《五月花號》畫作，這幅畫在畫架上就以1000美元的價格售出，開啟了他職業生涯中一個嶄新且成功的階段。他的《華盛頓辭職》畫作是在懷特返回巴黎後，受馬里蘭州委託以6000美元的價格創作的。 《五月花號》畫作是1920年作為朝聖者三百週年紀念的一部分發行的5美分郵票的基礎。一幅顯然是後來創作的、未完成的同主題畫作，創作於1867年，由藝術家遺贈給耶魯大學，該大學藝術博物館收藏了懷特為繪畫準備的大約24幅素描。 這位藝術家是康乃爾大學首任校長安德魯·迪克森·懷特的表親。
