John Phillip Biography

(b Aberdeen, 19 April 1817; d London, 27 Feb 1867). Scottish painter. He was a shoemaker’s son and was apprenticed to a house painter. At the same time he was taught by a local portrait painter. In 1834 he stowed away on a brig and visited the Royal Academy Schools in London. In 1836 on the strength of a history painting, he was financed by William Ramsay Maule, Lord Panmure (1771–1852), to leave home and attend the Royal Academy Schools. In London he joined a group of young English artists calling themselves THE CLIQUE, who met for sketching and mutual criticism. W. P. Frith and Richard Dadd were also members.
