On June 1st 1841 Sir David Wilkie, the Scottish painter, died.

Wilkie was born in Pitlessie Fife in Scotland on 18 November 1785. He was the son of the parish minister of Cults. He developed a love for art at an early age. In 1799, after he had attended school at Pitlessie, Kingskettle and Cupar, his father reluctantly agreed to his becoming a painter. Through the influence of the Earl of Leven Wilkie was admitted to the Trustees’ Academy in Edinburgh, and began the study of art.

He is principally famous as the most popular genre painter of his time, but he also produced historical subjects and portraits. Wilkie moved to London in 1805 aged just 20, a year later an exhibition at The Royal Academy was a remarkable success for a painter so young.

His Chelsea Pensioners Reading the Gazette of the Battle of Waterloo commissioned by the Duke of Wellington, was so popular when shown at the Royal Academy that a rail had to be erected in front of it to protect it from the crowds. Between 1825–8 Wilkie travelled on the Continent for reasons of health (he had long been prone to nervous illness) and his work changed radically under the influence of Renaissance and Baroque painting, becoming weightier in subject matter and broader in touch.

In 1840 he went to the Holy Land to research material for his biblical paintings and died at sea on the return journey; Turner (one of his many artist friends) commemorated him in Peace: Burial at Sea, as seen in the last pic. The first pic is Wilkie by Corish painter John Opie.

Close encounters

Sir, – I’m glad to see that Rosemary Lawlor’s UFOs ( Letters, September 23rd ) were observing social distancing. Yours, etc, PN CORISH, Rathgar, Dublin 6.

Love Gwen and Blake, but in reality, their career length maybe be uni-corish in a small pond, but there are entertainers, singers, performer, actresses, etc that their careers have spanned decades and are still very active.  Even in their genres, there are many that are longer than 3 to 4 decades than theirs has been up to date.  

L touched on this yesterday but does anyone how long careers in Hollywood actually are? I was looking at TMZ and they had a feature of like what do they look like now. Stars before and after fame. There are so so many people that had “made it” and faded away to the point I completely forgot about them. Gwen and Blake to be around as long as they have and still be relevant is unicorn-ish. It’s definitely not typical.

It is so true!
