About the Item

ARTIST: George Henry Grenville Manton (1855-1932) English TITLE: "A Sketch From Life" MEDIUM: oil on canvas SIZE: 86cm x 76cm inc frame CONDITION: original condition, images taken in bright lighting to show some light cracking to the paint commensurate with age NOTES: Painter born in London in 1855. Manton was a member of the Royal Society Of British Artists and was a portrait painter particularly early influenced by the pre-raphaelites. Manton shared a studio with fellow painter Arthur Elsley in 1876 which influenced his work to move towards romanticised scenes of children (a subject Elsley was well known for already) while still retaining his more commercial portrait commissions. Manton lived later in Bushey Hertfordshire, exhibiting 39 times at the Royal Academy, 19 times at the RBA among others.
