Jacob Eichholtz was a self-taught painter born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania in 1776 during the American Revolutionary War. He died in 1842 leaving behind a vast catalog of both well- and little-known paintings, many of which are on display in venues ranging from the Smithsonian Institute to the walls of private collectors.
