Thomas Chambers (painter)

He emigrated to the United States in 1832, shortly after George was granted the patronage of King William IV.

[3] This was followed by a period (1843-1851) in Boston, then he spent some time in Albany before returning to New York, around 1857.

[1] Over sixty-five paintings have now been positively identified as his, and numerous others have been tentatively attributed.

Many of his works were loosely based on engravings by other artists; notably William Henry Bartlett, but he is known to have painted en plein air.
