Born in Liverpool around 1720, Richard Wright is thought to have started as a house and ship painter. He exhibited at the Society of Artists between 1762 and 1773, winning premiums for his seapieces in 1766 and 1768. Wright executed the background of Reynolds' Duchess of Ancaster, which was exhibited in 1764 (D. Mannings, Sir Joshua Reynolds: A Complete Catalogue of His Paintings, New Haven and London, 2000, p. 86, no. 165, fig. 743). He was a near contemporary and neighbour of the Liverpool artists William Caddick and George Stubbs, and resumed his friendhip with the latter when Wright moved to London, by 1762.
