Samuel Austin (1796 – 1834), was an English water-colour painter. Born in Liverpool in 1796, Austin commenced life as a banker's clerk, but eventually gave up a good position in order to devote himself entirely to the art in which he had excelled as an amateur, and of which he was enthusiastically fond. He exhibited water-colour drawings at the Society of British Artists from 1824 to 1826, and from 1827 at the annual exhibitions of the Society of Painters in Water-Colours, of which body he was elected an associate in the last-named year. He painted landscapes, and occasionally rustic figures: but his best works were coast scenes, introducing boats and figures, some of which were from sketches in the Netherlands, France, and on the Rhine. An example of his work, Shakespeare's Cliff, Dover,
