Badger, Solon F. M.
Solon Francis Montecello Badger (1873-1919) was known for many years by the misnomer "Samuel Finley Morse Badger."
He was born in Boston and lived in nearby Charlestown with his father S. Badger, also a painter. As a teenager he lodged with ship portrait painter William P. Stubbs. For a time, Badger was apprenticed to a trunk maker, but after the business moved to the West, he took up ship painting.
He was largely self-taught as a painter, and he sailed (showing 500 of 910 characters). |
