Edward Paxman Brandard was a talented artist and creator who lived during the late 19th century. Born in Friedrichshafen around 1872, he left an indelible mark on the art world with his breathtaking creations. One of his notable works is "Golden Gate (From Telegraph Hill)" from 1872, which captures the majestic beauty of San Francisco's iconic landmark. In addition to this masterpiece, Brandard also depicted other stunning landscapes such as "Mount Shasta" in the same year. His attention to detail and ability to capture nature's grandeur made him a sought-after artist during his time. Brandard's artistic prowess extended beyond landscapes; he also showcased his talent in cityscapes like "City of Louisville" and "City of Boston (from South Boston), " both created in 1874. These pieces beautifully portray urban life, showcasing bustling streets and architectural marvels that defined these cities. Not limited to American scenery, Brandard ventured into international territories with works like "Dome of the Capitol, " capturing its magnificence in 1874. He also explored Alexandria during the mid-late 19th century, immortalizing its charm through his brushstrokes. Brandard's versatility shines through various mediums and subjects throughout his career. From serene river views like "View on the Seine" between Mantes and Vernon painted in 1837 to historical events such as the "Capture of Ting-hai, Chusan, China" from 1841 - each piece showcases his skillful craftsmanship. His collaboration with William Henry Bartlett resulted in remarkable creations like Osborne House from 1859—a testament to their combined talents. Portsmouth Harbour & Spithead is another example where Brandard masterfully captured maritime scenes that transport viewers into another world. The Norwegian landscape was not spared from Brandard's artistic vision either; Iceberg Lake at Isterdal stands as evidence of his ability to portray the beauty of nature in its purest form.
