however, Hitchcock abandoned law, and moved abroad to begin<br />
his career as a painter. He studied with Gustave Boulanger at the<br />
Academie Julian and then at The Hague. Hitchcock soon settled<br />
in the town of Egmond aan Zee, near Amsterdam. There he<br />
painted the vibrant and colorful landscapes of the Dutch tulip<br />
fields for which he is best known. Egmond developed into an<br />
artist’s colony, centered around Hitchcock and fellow American<br />
expatriate, Gari Melchers. Although Hitchcock remained in the<br />
small town of Egmond for the rest of his career, he was honored<br />
internationally; he was elected to the National Academy of Design<br />
in New York in 1909, and was a member of Vienna’s Akademie<br />
der Bildenden Künste as well as the French Légion d’Honneur.<br />
