Walter Franklin Lansil (1846–1925) was an American painter. Born in Bangor, Maine, to Asa Paine Lansil and Betsey Turner Grout he was a descendant of Stephen Hopkins of the Mayflower and Edmund Rice an early immigrant to the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He first studied under Jeremiah Pearson Hardy, then moved to Boston, Massachusetts in 1872 with his younger brother and fellow painter Wilbur Henry "Bibber" Lansil (1855–1897). In 1888 the brothers sailed to Europe, where Lansil studied at the Académie Julian in Paris and became enchanted with Venice, a city he'd paint for the rest of his life. By 1891 the brothers had returned to Boston, were living together at 101 Maxwell Street Dorchester with their brothers Asa Brainard Lansil and Edwin Lansil and Edwin's wife and children (brothers Walter, Wilbur and Asa never married) and began holding joint exhibits at their studio in Dorchester.
