High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Howard Russell Butler (March 3, 1856 – 1934) was an American painter and founder of the American Fine Arts Society. Butler also persuaded Andrew Carnegie to fund the construction of Carnegie Lake near Princeton University. Butler also designed a mansion, an astronomy hall and painted a solar eclipse for the U.S. Naval Observatory. Butler is known particularly for paintings of seascapes and for his views of the eclipse of the sun, but he would also paint people and landscapes. However beside the lake, Butler also designed the mansion for Carnegie and an Astronomy Hall for the American Museum of Natural History. Butlers paintings of solar eclipses were on display for many years at the Hayden Planetarium at that museum. Butler died in Princeton in 1938 near the lake that he had organised for their rowing team. His work can be seen at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Museum of American Art, American Museum of Natural History and of course Carnegie Lake.
