BiographyArthur Boyd Houghton
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Arthur Boyd Houghton (1836, India — 1875, England) was a British painter (oil and watercolours) and illustrator.

His work was varied and was revered during the mid-19th century. He traveled to America and Russia, creating illustrations for The Graphic and for numerous books, including The Arabian Nights and Don Quixote. His work was strongly influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.

Paul Hogath wrote a biography, published in 1981 by Gordon Fraser

Work by this artist is held within various public collections incluiding Tate Britain in London, as well as a number of private collections around the world.

Houghton is best known for etchings but also produced a number of oil paintings, many of his wife and children. He also wrote a little poetry which was published in his lifetime.

Arthur Boyd Houghton (1836, India — 1875, England), who usually signed his name A. B. Houghton, was a British painter (oil and watercolours) and illustrator.
Born in Kotagiri, Madras, India on 13 March 1836 and died in London on 25 Nov 1875.
His work was varied and was highly regarded during the mid-19th century. Van Gogh singled him out for particular high praise. He traveled to America and Russia, creating illustrations for The Graphic and for numerous books, including The Arabian Nights and Don Quixote. His work was strongly influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
He played a leading role in the renaissance of wood-engraved illustration during the golden decade of English book illustration (c. 1860-75), when a new school of artists overcame the limitations of the medium. Deeply influenced by the idealism of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, he imbued both his paintings and drawings with a haunting blend of poetic realism. He was the fourth son of Captain John Michael Houghton (1797–1874), who served in the East India Company's Marine as a draughtsman.
Laurence Housman produced a selection from his work which was dedication to the artists daughter Mrs E.C. Davis. (London: Kegan Paul, Trench, Trúbner and Co, 1896)
Paul Hogarth wrote a biography and monograph (London: Gordon Fraser, 1981)
Work by this artist is held within various public collections incluiding Tate Britain in London, British Museum, London, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, as well as a number of private collections around the world, including some that remain within the family.
Houghton is best known for wood-engravings but also produced a number of oil paintings and watercolours (usually based upon earlier wood-engravings), many of his wife and children. He also wrote a little poetry which was published in his lifetime. When still a child, a shot fired from a toy cannon left him blind in one eye, and unable to sustain his concentration when painting large works for exhibition at the Royal Academy
