John Hoppner
Early Life, Family and Training John Hoppner was born in Whitechapel, London, in 1758 to German parents. His mother held a position as one of the German attendants at the royal palace, a connection that placed the family in close proximity to the court from the start. This early environment shaped his trajectory, though his initial path was musical rather than visual. As a young boy, he served as a chorister at the royal chapel, a role that required discipline but ultimately failed to hold his interest against his inclination toward art.
