Allen was born in Lambeth, the son of a schoolmaster, and educated at St. Paul's. He became a stage scenery painter at the Olympic Theatre with Clarkson Stanfield and exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1826. The present work dates from circa 1830 and shows the influence of Charles Bentley. A similar seascape by Allen is in the British Museum (1872,0113.361).
