John A. Hammond (1843 - 1939) was active/lived in New Brunswick / Canada.  John Hammond is known for Landscape, marine, portrait.

Born in Montreal, Canada, John Hammond settled in St. John, New Brunswick where he became a noted landscape, marine, and portrait painter. He was a member of the Royal Canadian Academy of Art, a group of Quebec artists much influenced by European trends. He is remembered as one of the first eastern Canadian artists to depict the landscape of Western Canada, and was commissioned by the Canadian Pacific to paint murals commemorating the role of the railroad in opening routes through the West.

In 1866, when he was age 23, he joined an Army regiment known as "Ladies Pets", and subsequently spent several years prospecting gold in New Zealand. He returned to Canada in 1870, and began his first trip to the West when he joined the Transcontinental Railway Survey party to Yellowhead Pass. The next year, he worked in the studio of William Notman in Montreal, painting over photographs.
