Elliott Daingerfield

Elliott Daingerfield (March 26, 1859 –1932) was an American artist who lived and worked in North Carolina. He is considered one of North Carolina's most prolific artists.

Elliott, the son of a captain in the Confederate Army, was born in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, and raised in Fayetteville, North Carolina. At 21, he moved to New York to study art and was apprenticed under Walter Satterlee in 1880. He became an instructor in Satterlee's still life class and studied at the Art Students' League.

In 1884, Daingerfield left Satterlee and met George Inness.

In 1971, the North Carolina Museum of Art displayed 200 of Daingerfield's paintings; the museum owns "Grand Canyon" and "Evening Glow." and displays Daingerfield's painting "Angel of Beauty."

His first home, Edgewood Cottage, still stands as a tribute. The second is a private residence. His third summer home and studio Westglow was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
