Note:	Charles Adams Platt 'Charles Platt': A painter, architect, etcher and writer, Charles Adams Platt quickly became one of America's most highly regarded landscape artists during the late nineteenth century. He first studied art at the National Academy of Design and at the Art Students League of New York before finishing his formal training under Boulanger and Lefebvre, in Paris. During his successful career, Charles Adams Platt received many awards, including the bronze medal from the Paris Exposition of 1900. He was a full member of the Society of American Artists (1888), the National Academy of Design (Associate, 1897: Academician, 1911), the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the American Institute of Architects, the New York Etching Club and the London Society of Painter-Etchers.
	Charles Adams Platt was taught etching by his friend and fellow artist, Stephen Parrish, in 1880. Parrish (1846-1938) lived in Gloucester, Massachusetts, and thus many of Platt's initial etchings dealt with scenes from this locality. From 1880 through 1890, Charles Adams Platt devoted himself almost exclusively to the art of etching and produced over one hundred works of art in this medium. As well, in this decade, the artist worked extensively in England, France, Germany and Italy.
	In 1883 the Art Department of the New England Manufacturers' and Mechanics'; Institute, Boston, held a major exhibition of contemporary American art. Concentrating largely upon American drawings and etchings the exhibition catalogue listed 731 works of original art. C. A Platt's fine etching, "Street at Honfleur, France", was included in this exhibition and bears the catalogue number, 531. *
