Joseph Henry Hatfield (1863–1928) was an American painter and manufacturer of artist's oil paints. His work was shown in national and international exhibitions.

Biography[edit]

Hatfield was born near Kingston, Ontario, Canada, to William and Mary Jane (née Blick) Hatfield. Both parents and an older brother were born in England. William Hatfield was a silk weaver.[1] In 1862 the family emigrated from England to Canada, then moved to Boston in 1866.[2]

Hatfield became interested in art at an early age. The 1880 U.S. census listed the sixteen-year-old's occupation as "artist". In 1889–1890 he studied in Paris at the Académie Julien with Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant, Henri Lucien Doucet and Jules Joseph Lefebvre. He participated in the Paris Salon in 1891.[3]

Hatfield settled in Canton, Massachusetts, and also maintained a Boston studio in the Harcourt Studios building, which burned down in 1904.[4] Trained in figure painting, Hatfield specialized in genre painting, particularly scenes of children at play. Later in his career he concentrated on landscapes.

Hatfield also supplied illustrations for periodicals. His drawings for The Yellow Wall-paper, a short story by Charlotte Perkins Stetson, were published by The New England Magazine in January, 1892.

Noticing that many artist's oil paints in general use darkened over time, Hatfield decided to make his own. Starting in his basement with pigments imported from Europe, he developed a line of paints he called Hatfield's Hand Ground Artists Oil Paints. When the business outgrew the basement, Hatfield built a small factory behind his house in Canton Junction.[5] In 1898 he opened a retail store, Hatfield's Color Shop, in the basement of the Hotel Ludlow in Copley Square. Hatfield sold his paints along with other artist's materials, and hosted exhibitions of the works of other artists.[6] After his death in 1928, the shop was run by his elder daughter, Doris. The business had branches in the Massachusetts towns Cambridge, Rockport, and East Gloucester. In 1885 Hatfield married Flora E. Barber in Vermont. They had two daughters, Doris (1888–1977)[7] and Pauline (1899–1950), who often served as models for their father. The 1900 U. S. census lists Hatfield as a naturalized citizen.[2]

Hatfield died at home and is probably buried at the Canton Corner cemetery but I'll have to get down there and check.
