{{main|Taos Society of Artists|Taos art colony}}
Beginning in 1899, artists began to settle in Taos; six formed the [[Taos Society of Artists]] in 1915. In time, the [[Taos art colony]] developed. Many paintings were made of local scenes, especially of [[Taos Pueblo]] and activities there, as the artists often modelled Native Americans from the pueblo in their paintings. Some of the artists' studios have been preserved and may be viewed by visitors to Taos. These include the [[Ernest L. Blumenschein House]], the [[Eanger Irving Couse House and Studio—Joseph Henry Sharp Studios]], and the [[Nicolai Fechin]] house, all of which are listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]].<ref name=Blieler>Bleiler, 75.</ref><ref name="Taos Daily">{{cite journal | author1=Whaley, B. | author2=Stiny, A. | url=http://www.taosdaily.com/index.php?fuseaction=home.viewarticle&article_id=2789 | title="Reconsidering Art in Taos; Bert Phillips" in ''Taos Horse Fly'' | journal=Taos Daily | access-date= February 17, 2009 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120310092234/http://www.taosdaily.com/index.php?fuseaction=home.viewarticle&article_id=2789 | archive-date= March 10, 2012 }}</ref> {{citation needed span| text = Influential later 20th-century Taos artists include [[R.
