Robert W. Wright
Biography
Robert Wright was a London painter of genre subjects, which were mainly domestic scenes and interiors.
Wright’s solid modelling and firm confident handling would satisfy all private scholars. All his works aimed for objective accuracy in the record of British peasant life. Thankfully Wright’s realism had fostered a sentimental instinct, a type of rustic naturalism which enables the viewer to smile at the tribulations of these old characters.
Most of Wright’s paintings are small, on panel and painted in the traditional Wilkie/Webster style, many of which seem to be painted in pairs.
The artist exhibited at the Royal Academy, Suffolk Street and various other venues. Titles at the Royal Academy include “Making Patchwork”, “Baby’s Birthday”.
