  • Adelia Armstrong Lutz
    Westwood is the home, studio, and gallery of prominent East Tennessee artist, Adelia Armstrong Lutz (1859-1931) and her husband John Edwin Lutz. Built in 1890, the couple commissioned one of Knoxville’s best-known architectural firms, Baumann Brothers, to design Westwood. This resulted in an impressive Queen Anne style house with Richardsonian Romanesque accents in stone. A rare aspect of the design was Adelia’s painting studio and art gallery, by far the grandest room in the house. Designed especially for the artist, her studio had ample space for materials and paintings, a fireplace, a cathedral ceiling, tall windows and an impressive skylight. Today, Westwood showcases over 30 of Adelia’s works along with family memorabilia.

    The Bush-Holley House features two distinct time periods – the New Nation (1790-1825), when it was owned by a wealthy merchant, and its later life as a boarding house and home to the Cos Cob art colony (1890-1920).
