Samuel S. Carr

He is recorded as having lived in Brooklyn from 1879 to 1907, during which he developed an eerie style of painting in which shapes would be repeated, flipped, and rotated over and over, while still remaining lifelike.

Some of his paintings have sold at auction for more than US$70,000 in August 2000.
