Sir James Thornhill Biography

(b ?woolland, dorset, 25 july 1675; d stalbridge, dorset, 13 may 1734). english painter. the great english exponent of baroque decorative painting, he was the only one to compete successfully with foreigners for the relatively few large-scale decorative commissions available in england during the first quarter of the 18th century. his skill in this field was remarkable, since his training was irregular and his trips abroad (the low countries in 1711 and paris in 1717) came only after he had reached maturity as an artist.
