Charles Herbert Moore

After retirement, Moore moved to Hampshire, England where he wrote many books on medieval and Renaissance architecture.

[3] Moore began learning landscape painting in the 1850s at the Thirteenth Street School,[4] and with Benjamin H. Coe in 1853 in New York City.

He was eager to spread Ruskin's and Pre-Raphaelite instruction, and applied as an instructor of drawing at Vassar College.

They moved into a cottage a half mile north of Catskill, where they remained residents year-round until fall of 1871.

[5]: 168  The stone and timber house was directly north of Cole's Cedar Grove residence and across the Hudson from Frederic Church's Olana.

In 2004, the property became the Catwalk Institute, an artist and writer residency founded by James and Purcell Palmer.

[10] In 1871, he was appointed Instructor of Freehand Drawing at the Lawrence Scientific School at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

In 1891, Moore became an assistant professor at the university, and was awarded an honorary Master of Arts degree.
