FIRST RESIDENT ARTIST
Something of a Renaissance man, Edmonds was both a prominent banker
who laid the ground work for our modern-day check clearing system
and a respected artist who painted in the Dutch genre style.
Edmonds was a precursor of later Bronxville inhabitants. He was the
first established artist to take up residence in the Village;
several dozen leading painters, etchers and sculptors would follow
suit half a century later.
