Attributed to Jacob C. Ward (American, 1809-1891), "View of Northwest Bay, Lake George", c. 1830, oil on wood panel, unsigned, 9 7/8 in. x 14 in., framed. E1200-1800 Note: Jacob Caleb Ward was a highly regarded Romantic painter exhibiting at the major New York academies and associations between 1829 and 1852; he made painting tours to Virginia in 1835 and to the Minnesota Territory in 1836. He was also a pioneer daguerreotypist, spending the years 1845-1848 introducing that art (with his brother Charles Ward) in Chile, Peru, Bolivia, Panama, Jamaica, and Cuba. He returned-mainly to practice photography-in 1852 to his native Bloomfield, in northeastern New Jersey, an area made famous in American painting by the many pictures made around nearby Montclair by George Inness (1825-1894).
