Born in Hillsdale, near Hudson, New York, John Bristol was primarily a
self-taught artist. He did study briefly with the landscapist
Henry Ary, who moved to the Hudson area in the early 1840s.
Painters in Hudson were noted as landscape specialists, and Ary, who
was known for his picturesque views of the town and nearby Mount
Merino, was the instructor in painting and drawing at the Hudson Female
Academy, and had some influence on artists in the area.
