Antonio Jacobsen

Danish-American, 1850–1921

Antonio Jacobsen (1850–1921) was a Danish-born American maritime painter known for his detailed portraits of sail and steam vessels. After studying at the Royal Academy of Design in Copenhagen, he moved to the United States in 1873 and settled in New Jersey. Jacobsen painted over 6,000 ship portraits, often commissioned by ship owners, captains, and crew, and became recognized for both his accuracy and affordable prices. His works have been exhibited in major museums and are held in both public and private collections.
