John Peter Russell (Darlinghurst, Sydney, 16 June 1858 - Sydney, 22 April 1930) was an Australian impressionist painter. He was greatly appreciated by his fellow artists such as Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet and Henri Matisse, whom he inspired. Russell never achieved worldwide recognition and is therefore called the "lost impressionist". This may be due to the fact that Russell did not exhibit his work to the public. Russell was very rich, with his art he did not need to earn a living.
