Born in Ontario, Cyrenius Hall moved to Chicago in the 1850’s. Little is known about his early art training, but he did travel along the Oregon Trail to Portland in 1853-54. Hall was an itinerant painter, one of many such in the nineteenth century, who ventured to Europe (to study and paint), to South America, and to many places in the American West. His works can be found in historical collections across the country.
