Joseph Highmore 1692–1780
Joseph Highmore (13 June 1692 – 3 March 1780) was an English portrait and historical painter, illustrator and author
Highmore attended Sir Godfrey Kneller’s academy in London from 1713. In his early work he adapted Kneller’s style of portraiture to a more realistic style. Highmore was influenced and drew his inspiration from French Rococo artists making his portraits more elegant
Highmore was of a scholarly disposition, and studied the law before taking up painting
Many of his works can be found in National trust houses and various museums.
