John H. Oswald

John Hony Oswald (1829–1899) was a 19th-century Scottish marine and landscape artist. He is frequently confused with John Hervey Oswald (1843–1895) who was also an artist.

At baptism he was named John Oswald (However, subsequently he used the middle name "Hony" which was mistakenlyintended to honour his paternal grandmother Elisabeth Hoy). Various transcription errors of handwritten scripts have led to him being recorded as John Henry or John Hervey.
