    Biographical history

    Thomas Moran was born in Bolton, England and came to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with his birth family in 1844. As a teenager Moran became an apprentice at the Philadelphia engraving firm of Scattergood and Telfer. From there he worked in his brother Edward's studio, who was a Marine painter. Through his brother Edward he became acquainted with Philadelphia artist James Hamilton (1819-1878) and became his apprentice. Moran greatly admired and was influenced by J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) and in 1861 he traveled to England to study Turner's work at London's National Gallery. Moran was a painter and printmaker of the Hudson River School in New York. During the late 1860's he was appointed the chief illustrator for the magazine which helped him launch his career as one fo the painters of the Amercan West landscape. He died in 1926 at the age of 89 years.
