Daniel Dickinson

Daniel Dickinson (1795 — 1866) was an American painter and miniaturist.

Dickinson was born in 1795 to amateur portrait painter Oliver Dickinson, Jr. in Litchfield, Connecticut. He is the younger brother of famed American artist Anson Dickinson.

Dickinson is believed to have studied in New Haven, Connecticut, about 1812. Toward the end of that decade, he moved to Philadelphia, where he painted miniatures and portraits until 1846. The following year, in 1847, Dickinson moved to nearby Camden, New Jersey, and as time passed he abandoned his career as a portrait painter and devoted himself to horticulture.

Dickinson died in 1866 in Litchfield, Connecticut.
