John Hamilton Mortimer (1740 - 1779) was a British Neoclassical painter known for his romantic paintings and pieces set in Italy and its countryside, various other works depicting conversations between people, and works portraying war scenes, very similar to those of Salvator Rosa. Among other things, Mortimer took the place of President of the Society of Artists in 1774, only several years before his death, at age 39.
