          James Hamilton (1819 - 1878)

          Est: $1,500 - $2,500

          James Hamilton (1819 - 1878) Oil on Canvas, Signed, Measures ( x inches ) w/frame ( x. inches ) Born in Ireland, James Hamilton became a landscape painter and is credited with painting one of the first American seascapes, The Sea at Atlantic City, in 1868. Few of his seascapes have survived, but exhibition records reveal that he did numerous coastal scenes from New York to Maryland. He came to the United States, settling with his family in Philadelphia, at age fifteen. His early teachers are unknown, but he had guidance in book and magazine illustration. He enrolled at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and in addition to painting, gained skill in engraving and etching. He was a great admirer of the landscapes of English painter J.M.W. Turner, and became known as the "American Turner" because of his vivid lighting effects in coastal scenes and seascapes. His only recorded trip abroad was to England in 1854 and 1855, and he studied Turner's paintings while there.

          James Hamilton was born near Belfast, Ireland and immigrated with his family to the United States in 1834 at the age of fifteen. They settled in Philadelphia, where he secured formal instruction and began his artistic career in the 1840s, exhibiting at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and later at the National Academy of Design in New York. Hamilton traveled to Great Britain in 1854 to study the paintings of James M. W. Turner who was to have a great influence on his work. In succeeding decades, Hamilton worked actively as a landscape artist and became best known for dramatic marine scenes of all kinds, including this depiction of a ship burning possibly at the New York harbor with Castle Garden in the background. In 1875, Hamilton auctioned a large group of paintings and moved with his family to San Francisco to paint scenes of the Pacific Coast, with plans to continue a worldwide trip westward. He died in San Francisco unexpectedly three years later in 1878. Relined, inpainting in upper left sky and scattered minor areas. Artist: JAMES HAMILTON (American 1819 - 1878). Condition: Good.
