Joseph Highmore
1692-1780 England/Rococo-Portraitist
|
Brief Biography-Joseph Highmore was a London portraitist and pupil of Godfrey Kneller. He did a series of genre-style paintings for S. Richardson, the writer, which is not dissimilar to the style of William Hogarth. Joseph spent some time in France, where Rococo painting influenced him. He resided in Canterbury during his later years, where he became dedicated to writing only. |
