Sketch of sailboat in Alameda, 1881, signed by C. D. Shed. 9.5" x 7.5" on paper. Charles Dyer Shed was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1818. He arrived in San Francisco during the Gold Rush in 1849. He worked as a ship chandler and as a scene painter for theatrical producer David Robinson (father of artist Charles Dormon Robinson). He painted many landscapes of northern California as well as marines and the shipping activities on San Francisco Bay. Shed later moved across the bay to Alameda where he maintained a home and studio for many years. He died there on September 12, 1893. Exhibited: Mechanics' Institute Fair, 1857, 1858 (bronze medal), 1860, 1871, 1878-80; California Art Union, 1865; San Francisco Art Ass'n, 1872-83. We assume that Shed was acquainted with the Nahl family because this drawing we included in the collection.
