Andrew Wyeth, Realist and Lightning Rod, Dies at 91
Andrew Wyeth, one of the most popular and also most lambasted artists in the history of American art, a reclusive linchpin in a colorful family dynasty of artists, and a painter whose precise, realist views of a harsh rural life became emblems of national culture and incited endless debates about the nature of modern art, died on Friday at his home in Chadds Ford, Pa. He was 91.
