John Noble Barlow

John Noble Barlow (1861-1917) was a prominent English artist at the turn of the twentieth century, known predominantly as a landscape and seascape painter.

John Barlow was born in Manchester, England in 1861. He enrolled at the Académie Julian in Paris, and studied for two years under Jules Joseph Lefebvre, Paul Delance and Benjamin Jean – Joseph Constant. Barlow also studied in Belgium, Holland and New York. He later immigrated to the United States and became a U.S. citizen in 1887, although he returned to Europe by 1889. Barlow lived in Providence, Rhode Island and was a member of the Providence Art Club and exhibited at the National Academy of Design and the Art Institute of Chicago. Barlow returned to England, and settled in St. Ives, Cornwall in 1892. In 1896 he was made a member of the Royal Society of British Artists and Oil Painters. He received medals at both the 1899 Paris Salon (Gold Medal-3rd Class) and the 1900 Paris Exposition. Many of his later scenes are from the Lamorna Valley, where he had a studio. His 1909, "Spring, Lamorna" was considered his best work to date. Barlow died in Penzance in 1917.

Barlow was well-known for his large landscapes, seascapes, sunsets and moonrises and autumnal scenes. Tree groupings were considered one of his strong suits. Three of Barlow's paintings are currently displayed at the Rhode Island School of Design Museum in Providence, Rhode Island in the United States. Barlow's work is also on public display in Cheltenham, Plymouth and Truro in England. He often signed his works, "J.N. Barlow".

Many of Barlow's pupils at the John Noble Barlow school became well-known painters, including Garstin Cox, William Cox, Herbert George, Anna A. Hills, and Edgar Nye.
