Thomas Hudson

Early Life and Training Thomas Hudson, born in Bideford, Devon, in 1701 – though the precise location remains somewhat uncertain – emerged as a significant figure in 18th-century English portraiture. His early years are shrouded in a degree of obscurity, yet his unwavering dedication to art quickly became apparent. He began his artistic journey under the tutelage of Jonathan Richardson in London, an association that proved profoundly formative. Richardson’s influence was particularly strong, instilling in Hudson a meticulous approach to portraiture – a commitment to accuracy and a keen eye for detail, rooted in classical principles.
