Harold Gilman Biography

(b Rode, Somerset, 11 Feb 1876; d London, 12 Feb 1919). English painter. He developed an interest in art as a boy, during a period of convalescence. He spent a year at the University of Oxford, but left on account of his health to work as a tutor with an English family in Odessa. On his return in 1896 he attended Hastings School of Art and then the Slade School of Fine Art, London (1897–1901). Afterwards he spent over a year in Spain, copying paintings by Velázquez in the Prado. He also married an American painter, Grace Canedy, whom he met in Madrid. They settled in London, but after the birth of a daughter made a long visit to Canedy’s family in Chicago where a second daughter was born and Gilman came under pressure to join his father-in-law’s business.
