See also:FURSE, See also:CHARLES See also:WELLINGTON (1868-1904) , See also:English painter, See also:born at See also:Staines, the son of the Rev. C. W. Furse, See also:arch-See also:deacon .of See also:Westminster, was descended collaterally from See also:Sir See also:Joshua See also:Reynolds, and in his See also:short span of See also:life achieved such rare excellence as a portrait and figure painter that he forms an important See also:link in the See also:chain of See also:British See also:portraiture which extends from the See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time when See also:Van Dyck was called to the See also:court of Charles I. to our own See also:day. His See also:- TALENT (Lat. talentum, adaptation of Gr. TaXavrov, balance, !

talent was precocious; at the See also:age of seven he gave indications of it in a number of drawings illustrating See also:Scott's novels. He entered the See also:Slade school in 1884, winning the Slade scholarship in the following See also:year, and completed his See also:education at See also:Julian's atelier in See also:Paris. Hard worker as he was, his activity was frequently interrupted by spells of illness, for he had See also:developed signs of See also:consumption when he was still attending the Slade school. An important See also:canvas called " See also:Cain" was his first contribution (1888) to the Royal See also:Academy, to the associateship of which he was elected in the year of his See also:death. For some years before he had been a staunch supporter of the New English See also:Art See also:Club, to the exhibitions of which he was a See also:regular contributor. He was married in See also:October 1900 to Katherine, daughter of See also:John Addington See also:Symonds. His fondness for See also:sport and of an open-See also:air life found expression in his art and introduced a new, fresh and vigorous See also:note into portraiture. There is never a See also:suggestion of the studio or of the fatiguing pose in his portraits. The sitters appear unconscious of being painted, and are generally seen in the pursuit of their favourite outdoor sport or pastime, in the full enjoyment of life. Such are the " See also:Diana of the Uplands," the " See also:Lord See also:Roberts " and " The Return from the Ride " at the See also:Tate See also:Gallery; the four See also:children in the " Cubbing with the See also:York and Ainsty," " The See also:Lilac See also:Gown," " Mr and Mrs See also:Oliver Fishing " and the portrait of Lord Charles See also:Beresford. Most of these pictures, and indeed nearly all the See also:work completed in the few years of Furse's activity, show a pronounced decorative tendency. His sense of space, See also:composition and decorative See also:design can best be judged by his admirable mural decorations for See also:Liverpool See also:town See also:- HALL
