John Charlton was an artist of remarkable reputation who practiced his craft on the battlefields of history. An English painter and illustrator, he depicted historical and especially battle scenes that resonated with the pulse of the times. His artistry and expressiveness are on display in our art prints, allowing you to bring the captivating moments he captured on canvas into your own home. In the green expanses of Bamburgh, Northumberland, John Charlton was born on June 28, 1849 to Samuel and Mary Ann Charlton. His talent was revealed at an early age, when he began to draw under the tutelage of his father at the age of three or four. Despite the financial difficulties his family faced, he found inspiration in the books of a Newcastle bookstore and in the work of Thomas Bewick, the "father of wood engraving." After many years at the ironworks of Sir Isaac Bell, his artistic talent was recognized and he was encouraged to develop his art and began attending evening classes at the Newcastle School of Arts with William Bell Scott.
In the mid-nineteenth century Charlton exhibited his first works at the Royal Academy and there followed a period of intense creative activity during which he took up military subjects. His first military painting, Exercise of Artillery Horses on a Frosty Morning, marked the beginning of a new era in his artistic career. Hoping for greater success on the London art scene, Charlton moved south in 1874, where he studied with JD Watson at the South Kensington Museum, now the Victoria and Albert Museum. But while he broadened his horizons and developed his skills in the capital, Charlton remained loyal to his homeland, maintaining a home in Newcastle.
The late 1870s and 1880s, during which British and colonial forces sought to consolidate their control over territories in North and South Africa, were a fertile time for Charlton. Many of his illustrations depicting these historical events were published in The Graphic. Of particular note are his contributions to the Egyptian Campaign of 1882, where he produced many of the eyewitness sketches that were posted by the newspaper's special artists. Through our high quality art prints, you can take home the works of John Charlton and experience the dramatic events and scenes he captured with his skilled hands. Each art print is a tribute to Charlton's skill and ability to bring history to life through art. It is an invitation for you to take this artistic wealth into your own hands.
