BONINGTON, RICHARD PARKES,
born at Arnold,
near Nottingham,
Oct. 25, 1801, died
in London, Sept.
23, 1828. His
father, a poor portrait
painter, took
him, when only
fifteen years old,
to Paris, where
the boy procured
permission to copy in the Louvre. He became
a student in the École des Beaux Arts,
and in 1819 entered the studio of Baron
Gros. After obtaining a considerable reputation
in Paris and winning the gold medal
(1824) for a marine subject, he went to Venice
and painted there some elaborate pictures
both in oil and water colours, which
won him fame and many commissions in
England, but his promising career was cut
short by death, the result of a sunstroke.
Though he painted chiefly landscape and
marine views, he also executed figure subjects
with much skill, and his influence on
the French school of genre and dramatic art
was great. Works: Column of St. Mark in
Venice, National Gallery, London; Henri
IV. and the Spanish Ambassador, Collection
