Fanny Dariel

A fine portrait of a Spanish Nobleman holding an honours scroll, painted by English artist Richard Caton Woodville (1856-1927). Mixed media. Framed and glazed. The portrait itself is sized 37.5x24cm.  

Woodville was an English artist and illustrator, who is best known for being one of the most prolific and effective painters of battle scenes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Woodville studied in Düsseldorf under the Prussian military artist Wilhelm Camphausen, before studying in Paris under Jean-Léon Gérôme. He spent much of his career working for the London Illustrated News, first experiencing battle first-hand when he was sent to report upon the Russo-Turkish War (1877–1878), and then again in the 1882 Anglo-Egyptian War. Three of his Great War works (WW1) were displayed in the Royal Academy in 1927 (the year of his death), namely The 2nd Batt. Manchester Regiment taking six guns at dawn near St. Quentin; the Entry of the 5th Lancers into Mons, and Halloween, 1914: and the Stand of the London Scottish on Messines Ridge (London Scottish Regiment Museum Trust). 

Sadly, he committed suicide in 1927. 

He is still exhibited in the Royal Academy, National Army Museum, the Tate, and the Walker Art Gallery. Works of his were also purchased for the Royal Collection.
