Fred Mayor Landscape Drawings and Watercolors

British, 1865-1916

Fred Mayor was born near Ripon in Yorkshire. He was educated at St Edmund's School Canterbury, where he excelled both at drawing and cricket. The former became his profession, and he began with a studio in Chiswick shared with Frank Brangwyn. In 1886, Mayor followed the well-trodden path of spending time in Paris, studying at the Académie Julian, and also meeting Wilson Steer and Walter Sickert, who influenced his work and were lifelong friends of his. In 1888, at the age of just 21, a painting of his was accepted at the Royal Academy of Arts. In 1899,  Mayor moved to join the artists' colony in Staithes, Yorkshire, where other artists included Harold and Dame Laura Knight. He met and subsequently married another artist, Sheffield-born Hannah Hoyland. Married life began by eloping to Montreuil-sur-Mer in northern France, where he developed his characteristic impressionistic style. Mayor died in 1916 while undergoing a routine operation for asthma, which was required before he could become a war artist.
