Benjamin Champney is synonymous with White Mountain art of the 19th century. He began his training as a lithographer under Pendleton in Boston. Most art historians consider him the founder of the "North Conway Colony" of painters who came to North Conway, New Hampshire and the surrounding area during the second half of the 19th century. His paintings were often used to make chromolithographs that were subsequently sold to tourists who could not afford Champney's originals.
