Henry Price (painter)

Henry Price (5 May 1819 – 12 December 1863) was a British musician and painter who specialized in landscape watercolors.

After studying painting and violin in London, he went to New York, where he married Elisa Castello, a Colombian.

He participated in the third phase of the Comisión Corográfica (1850–1859), led by Agustín Codazzi, who replaced the Venezuelan painter Carmelo Fernández.

The Comisión Corográfica had been founded according to an 1839 law with the mission of creating an official map of Colombia and studying the country's geography.

On his trip from Santa Marta to Bogotá together with the Comisión Corográfica, between January and August 1858, he painted the people who lived on the banks of the Magdalena River.
