Attributed to Charles Henry Gifford (1839-1904) American Coastal Scene Oil on Canvas Painting. Traces of a signature lower right. Charles Henry Gifford is well known for his works in water colors as is his oils and his pictures have found a ready sale, not only in all parts of the United States but in Europe.
Charles Henry Gifford was born in Fairhaven, Massachusetts July 13, 1839, the son of Benjamin R. and Betsey (Barstow) Gifford. His father was a ship carpenter. Young Gifford was educated in the public schools of the town. In his boyhood he could draw well and while yet a mere youth he gained admission to the art gallery connected with the music store of John Hopkins, on Union Street in New Bedford, where Albert Bierstadt, another famous artist, had one of his pictures on exhibition. The view stirred all the latent talent in young Gifford, and he told his mother he intended to be an artist. He was given some pennies with which he bought dry paints. Making his own brushes from hog bristles and hen feathers, he painted his first picture upon a piece of canvas of his own making.
