NAME VARIANTS: John Leigh Wardleworth CATEGORY: old antique vintage painting for auction sale online AD: ART WANTED: Consign, Trade In, Cash Offer SKU#: 135619 US SHIPPING: $95 + insurance. BIOGRAPHY: Jack (John) Leigh Wardleworth was born in Prestwich in Manchester on 27 February 1863. His mother died when he was twelve years old. His father and grandfather were both dyers working in Manchester factories during the industrial revolution. John's father appears to have been upwardly mobile. He later became a yarn salesman and finally, in the 1881 census, he is listed as a picture framer. Given his humble background it seems unlikely that Wardleworth would have had an expensive classical education, which makes the subject matter of his paintings all the more remarkable. His father's later occupation may well have kindled his interest in art.Wardleworth appears to have lived in Manchester all his life. In census transcripts he describes himself as 'an artist in oils'. He shared a home with his unmarried sister, Ada, both before and after his marriage in 1898. Ada also describes herself as an artist but there appears to be no legacy of her work remaining.Wardleworth is included in the 'Checklist of Painters, c1200-1994 represented in the Witt Library at the Courtauld Institute of Art' but does not feature in the 'Benezit Dictionary of Artists'. It seems unlikely that he achieved a great deal of commercial success in his lifetime. There is currently no biographical information about him online other than can be gleaned from primary research of parish records and census material.
