Samuel Colman ( 1832 –  1920) was an American painter, interior designer, and writer. He is probably best known for his paintings of the Hudson River.

Samuel Colman was renowned for his captivating landscapes of the early West. Before embarking on his artistic journey in America, he traveled extensively in Italy, where he was deeply influenced by the Italian Renaissance masters. This European experience enriched his artistic style, imbuing his later works with a sense of grandeur, romanticism, and a keen eye for detail. Colman's lithograph, "Amalfi Arched Bridge, " beautifully captures the picturesque Italian landscape, showcasing his ability to translate the beauty of the Italian scenery onto paper.
