About the Artist
Moore was born in Woodbridge, Suffolk and baptised in February 1821. The son of Martin Moore, a plumber, painter and decorator and Elizabeth Warren. The young John was apprenticed to the trade of plumbing and signwriting but not much is known about his early life. Woodbridge had an interesting community of artists and it could be that Moore became familiar with the work of Thomas Churchyard, George James Rowe and the many places for sketching by the River Deben.
He married Caroline Upson (c.1822-1877) and had a son John Gordon in 1843. The family lived in Woodbridge, with Moore working as a house painter. He is likely to have been self-taught as an artist and we have no record of formal art training. By 1871 the family had moved to Ipswich, perhaps prompted by the possibility of finally being able to establish himself as a painter. Moore now worked solely as an artist in oils and his son John, who was blind, became a basket-maker. Unfortunately, in 1877 Caroline died and Moore re-married in 1878, Harriet Kersey (1838-1900) at St Mary’s Church, Woodridge.
Ipswich’s busy port provided perfect subject matter for Moore and there were many wealthy clients from the various maritime and industrial trades. Local families of the time would support notable artists of the region and Moore was engaged by the Cobbold family to paint scenes in Scotland and Northumberland.
Moore quickly became involved in the Ipswich artistic community and joined the Ipswich Art Club at its formation in 1874. His small landscapes sold for £5, and up to 30 guineas or more for larger, important works. When the first exhibition of the Ipswich Fine Art Club was reviewed in the East Anglian Daily Times in 1875, John Moore was described as one of the best marine painters and a ‘successor to Clarkson Stanfield’. Edward Packard (1843-1932), founder of the Art Club and later President, was a very influential figure in Ipswich business and cultural circles and bought several art works by Moore.
Moore lived in Tower Ditches for several years and when he painted this view of his neighbourhood it would have been very familiar to him.
Moore eventually went to live with a friend at Diss and in 1902 passed away having ‘wielded the brush with unabated vigour till almost the very last’. Ipswich Journal, 12th April 1902 . He is buried in Ipswich Cemetery.

Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
