PAST WINNERS, THOMAS SOMERSCALES TROPHY

Thomas Jacques Somerscales (29 October 1842–27 June 1927) was an English teacher, sailor, and landscape and marine painter. He is also considered a Chilean painter as he began his career as an artist there. Many of his landscapes evoke the region and many of his marine paintings feature notable events in Chilean naval history and have become patriotic national icons in that country.
