George Smith

Richard Wilson: Bridging the Divide Between Italy and Wales Richard Wilson, born in Edinburgh in 1713 – a year marked by significant artistic developments across Europe – stands as a pivotal figure in the transition of landscape painting from its Rococo roots to a more emotionally resonant and classically informed style. His life was one of constant movement, shaped by familial obligations, financial constraints, and an insatiable desire to absorb the artistic lessons of both Italy and his native Wales. Wilson’s story is not simply that of a painter; it's a narrative interwoven with family history, social connections, and a profound engagement with the changing aesthetic landscape of 18th-century Britain. He was the third son of John Wilson, a rector, and his wife Alice, who came from the Wynne family of Leeswood near Mold.
