Detailed Information URL: http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/Jfildes.htm Title: Luke Fildes Description: Abstract: Born in Liverpool in 1843, his grandmother was a political activist and one of the speakers at the Peterloo Massacre. In 1869 he joined Graphic magazine and was asked to provide an illustration to accompany an article on the Houseless Poor Act. He soon became a popular artist and by 1870 he had turned his full attention to oil painting. His belief in realism sometimes caused him problems with his portrait subjects. He painted several members of the royal family. He was knighted in 1906 and died in 1918.
