William Lawson of See also:Edinburgh, esteemed as a portrait painter. His See also:mother also was known for her See also:flower pieces. He was See also:born near See also:Shrewsbury on the 3rd of See also:December 1851. Two of his See also:brothers (one of them, See also:Malcolm, a See also:clever musician and See also:song-writer) were trained as artists, and Cecil was from childhood devoted to See also:art with the intensity of a serious nature. Soon after his See also:birth the Lawsons moved to See also:London. Lawson's first See also:works were studies of See also:fruit, See also:flowers, &c., in the manner of W. See also:Hunt; followed by See also:riverside See also:Chelsea subjects. His first exhibit at the Royal See also:Academy (187o) was " See also:Cheyne Walk," and in 1871 he sent two other Chelsea subjects. These gained full recognition from See also:fellow-artists, if not from the public. Among his See also:friends were now numbered Fred See also:- WALKER, FRANCIS AMASA (1840-1897)

Lawson's Chelsea pictures had been painted in somewhat See also:low and sombre tones; in the " Hymn to See also:Spring " of 1872 (rejected by the Academy) he turned to a more joyous See also:play of See also:colour, helped by See also:work in more romantic scenes in See also:North See also:Wales and See also:Ireland.

But Lawson's See also:triumph was with the See also:great luxuriant See also:canvas " The See also:Minister's See also:Garden," exhibited in 1878 at the Grosvenor See also:Gallery, and now in the See also:Manchester Art Gallery. This was followed by several works conceived
in a new and tragic See also:mood. His See also:health began to fail, but he worked on. He married in 1899 the daughter of Birnie See also:- PHILIP
