Talbot Hughes

Talbot Hughes (1869-1942) was a British painter of genre and historical scenes. In a 1902 article in The Magazine of Art writer Marion Hepworth Dixon commented on Hughes's "dexterity of hand, the extraordinary facility with which he renders the different surfaces of stuffs, woods, and metal, together with the agility of his outlook and the verve and spontaneity of his eighteenth century designs."

  1. A traditional painting is constructed, in order from bottom to top, of the support, size, ground, paint,
    and coating. Because all of these layers can affect the appearance of the painting, paintings require special care
    to keep them looking their best for the longest time possible.
