Moran was born to Thomas and Mary Higson of Lancashire, England on August 19, 1829. Following in the footsteps of his father’s profession, he learned to operate a hand-loom at a young age, though he would often be found sketching with charcoal on the white fabric instead of plying the shuttle. His family first emigrated to Maryland. In 1844, and then to Philadelphia. Though Moran loved to regale others with a tale of walking alone from Baltimore. In order to find a better future for himself, his niece has declared that the entire family moved to the city together. It was in Philadelphia around 1845 that Edward apprenticed under James Hamilton. And landscape painter Paul Weber. Hamilton guided Moran specifically in the style of marine paintings. In the 1850s Moran began to make a name for himself in the Philadelphia artistic scene; working in the same studio as his younger brother, famous American painter. Edward received commissions and even completed some lithographic work. In 1862, he traveled to. And became a pupil in the. After moving back to Philadelphia, Moran married Annette Parmentier (his second wife), whom he also apprenticed as a landscape artist in her own right. He then established a studio in New York in 1872, and for some time after 1877 lived in Paris. One of his more well-known exhibits, titled Land and Sea, showed 75 of his landscape and marine paintings in March 1871; these paintings were later illustrated in a catalogue by the same name. In 1885, at the height of his career, Moran began on what would be considered his most important work – a series of 13 paintings representing the Marine History of the United States.
