Alfred S. Waugh was an Irishman who studied at the Royal Dublin Society in 1827 where he learned to model in clay and worked in life classes. By 1833 he was in Baltimore, Maryland, where he began his career as a portrait painter. He was a prolific artist and exhibited his work at the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Boston Athenaeum. He was also a member of the National Academy of Design and the American Watercolor Society. Waugh's style is characterized by his use of watercolor and his attention to detail. He was known for his ability to capture the likeness of his subjects and for his skill in rendering the textures of their clothing and accessories. Waugh's work is represented in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
