Franklin Briscoe (1844 – 1903)
Known for his rendering of seascapes, historical scenes, and portraits, Franklin Briscoe was born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1844. At age four, his family moved to Philadelphia, where he became a student of the esteemed marine painter, Edward Moran. As a young adult, Briscoe traveled to Europe several times, where he studied the masterpieces of England, France, and other important art centers of the time. From many of these long ventures across the Atlantic Ocean, Briscoe found some of the seascape subjects featured in his paintings. In 1885, he executed the monumental historical mural, “The Battle of Gettysburg”, a dramatic depiction of the most significant battle of the American Civil War. He exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Brooklyn Art Association, and was included in the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition.

Franklin D. Briscoe
History and marine painter Franklin Dullin Briscoe was born in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1844 and studied in Philadelphia with Edward Moran in 1860. Like many of his contemporaries, he then went abroad to further his artistic education, visiting London and Paris before returning home and establishing his studio in Philadelphia. Briscoe made several more ocean voyages during his career, experiences that inspired the dramatic seascapes and shipping scenes for which he is today best known. The weather was an especially important factor in his work, whether capturing fishermen returning after a long day’s work under calm, luminist skies to his paintings of storm-tossed ships and sailors at the mercy of the wind and waves.

Biography
John William Casilear was born in New York City on June 25, 1811. Like his fellow Hudson River School landscapists Asher B. Durand and John F. Kensett, he worked as an engraver before turning to painting. In 1826 Casilear was apprenticed to the engraver Peter Maverick (1780-1831), and at first he primarily executed bank notes. Durand encouraged him to attempt other subjects, however, and during the 1830s he madeengravings after some of the most prominent paintings of the day, including Daniel Huntington's The Sybil (New-York Historical Society). In 1832 he began submitting engravings to the National Academy of Design exhibition and he first showed paintings there in 1836. In 1833 Casilear was elected an Associate of the Academy; he was elevated to full Academician status in 1851.
In 1840 Casilear accompanied Durand, Kensett, and another painter, Thomas P. Rossiter (1818-1871), on a trip to Europe. There the artists studied and copied paintings...
