Jean Leon Gerome Ferris (1863-1930) was a painter of Philadelphia, Pa. Ferris studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and in Paris at the Académie Julian and with Jean Léon Gérôme. He signed some works as G. Ferris. In 1900, he began a series of paintings on American history. He became best known for this series of 78 scenes from American history, entitled The Pageant of a Nation, the largest series of American historical paintings by a single artist.
