Thomas Hudson

Early Life and Training Thomas Hudson, a name synonymous with elegance and refinement in 18th-century English portraiture, emerged from the quiet coastal town of Bideford, Devon, sometime around 1701. While the precise details of his early life remain somewhat shrouded in obscurity – the exact location of his birth is still debated – it’s clear that a deep passion for art ignited within him from an early age. His artistic journey began under the tutelage of Jonathan Richardson, a prominent London painter and writer, marking the beginning of a lineage that would profoundly influence the course of British portraiture. Richardson's workshop in London provided Hudson with a rigorous foundation in technique and observation.
