About this book
Joseph Wright, A.R.A., known as Wright of Derby, is the painter whose life and work William Bemrose sets out in this illustrated biography, published in London and Derby in 1885 with two etchings by F. Seymour Haden. Bemrose, who also wrote a manual of wood carving, produced it after a Derby exhibition of Wright's pictures in 1883.
Cosmo Monkhouse's preface discusses the candle-light pieces and portraits, among them the group of Mr. Newton's children, and argues that Wright had been unfairly forgotten.
