Apologies for the late appearance of part 4 of this post. I had intended to post from abroad, but was unable to do so in the end. Normal service resumed:
George Richmond (1809 - 1896) was an English painter. In his youth he was a member of "The Ancients," a group of followers of William Blake. Later in life he established a career as a portrait painter. He was the son of Thomas Richmond, a miniature-painter, and was the father of painter William Blake Richmond.
For biographical notes on George Richmond see part 1. For earlier works see parts 1 - 3 also.This is part 4 of a 5 - part post on the works of George Richmond. Note: The majority of these images are the engravings 'after George Richmond' from the National Portrait Gallery, London.
