MORAN, EDWARD (18291901) , American artist, was born at Bolton, Lancashire, England, on the 19th of August 1829. He emigrated with his family to America at the age of fifteen, and subsequently settled in Philadelphia, where after having followed his father's trade of weaver, he became a pupil of James Hamilton and Paul Weber. In 1862 he became a pupil of the Royal
Academy
  in London; he established a studio in New
York
  in 1872, and for many years after 1877 lived in Paris. He was a painter of marine subjects and examples of his
work
  are in many prominent collections. Among his canvases are thirteen historical paintings, intended to illustrate the marine history of America from the time of Leif Ericsson to the return of Admiral Dewey's
fleet
  from the Philippines in 1899. He died in New
York
  City on the 9th of June 1901. His sons (Edward) Percy
