Still Life Painting of Peaches. 18" by 22". In need of some conservation work as shown. Hall made trips to the West in the 1850s via the Oregon Trail. He painted scenery in and around Portland before moving south to San Francisco where he painted a huge panorama of the Overland Trail and of California. From 1861 to 1866 he lived in South America where he had gone for his brother's health. He pursued his profession there until the threat of war between Chile and Spain forced his return to the States. Returning to NYC, in 1867 he sailed to England and France, and then spent three years of art study in Munich. Upon his return to New York, he was active there for a few years and then settled in Chicago; however, he continued to be peripatetic. He was in Kansas in 1878, Montana in 1885, and then made another trip to Portland. Hall died in Chicago in 1896.
