Sebastian Pether
River Scene
Sebastian Pether (1790–1844) was English landscape-painter.
Life
The eldest son of Abraham Pether, he was a pupil of his father, and followed him in subject matter. A large family meant he worked for dealers, for subsistence, and his works were not often exhibited. He died at Battersea on 14 March 1844, and a subscription was raised for his family.[1]

In 1842, three pictures which, with the help of a frame-maker, he sent to the Royal Academy, were rejected.[1]
