About the artist

Samuel Scott (c1702-1772) is highly respected as a pioneering figure in 18th-century British marine art. His early life and training remain mysterious, yet his work exhibits strong Dutch influences, particularly from Willem Van de Velde the Younger (1633-1707), a predominant source of inspiration throughout Scott's career. In 1732, Scott's first significant commission began, a collaborative project with fellow artist George Lambert. The duo created a six-part series depicting the East India Company's settlements for exhibition in its headquarters.

Exposure to the work of Giovanni Antonio Canal, also known as Canaletto, in 1746, marked a significant turning point in Scott's career, earning him the nickname 'the English Canaletto'. Surprisingly for a marine artist, Scott's personal love for ships didn't translate into seafaring, due to his reputed severe seasickness. Nonetheless, he thrived, gaining substantial support from high-profile patrons such as art historian Horace Walpole and fellow artist William Hogarth. The endorsement of these influential figures further solidified Scott's position within the London art scene.
