George Frederic Watts - Paintings
George Frederic Watts was an important English painter and sculptor of Symbolism.
Born: 23 February 1817 in London.
Died: 01 June 1904 in Compton, Surrey
The artistic skill of George Frederic Watts, who receives his education at the Royal Academy, is already evident in his youth. At the age of twenty, the artist directs his first studio, which he finances through commissioned portraits. In addition to portrait works, which he does not particularly pay respect to, Watts also paints mythological and allegorical themes. These earn him several awards and money for his stay in Italy. Since he is denied his dream of an important allegorical fresco in the public space, he concentrates on the portraying of famous contemporaries. His works, painted in an idealized, poetic style, earn him great fame and the offer of an aristocratic title, which he, however, rejects. 		George Frederic Watts
