William Ward, and he engraved many admirable plates, among which his " Mrs See also:Billington," after See also:Reynolds, occupies a very high See also:place. He presented a See also:complete set of his engravings, in their various states, numbering three See also:hundred impressions, to the See also:British Museum. While still a youth he made the acquaintance of See also:George See also:Morland, who afterwards married his See also:sister; and the example of this artist's See also:works induced him to See also:attempt See also:painting. His See also:early productions were rustic subjects in the manner of Morland, which were frequently sold as the See also:work of the more celebrated painter. His " See also:Bull-Bait," an animated See also:composition, introducing many figures, attracted much attention in the Royal See also:Academy of 1797. A See also:commission from See also:Sir See also:John See also:Sinclair, See also:president of the new agricultural society, to paint an See also:Alderney cow, led to much similar work, and turned Ward's attention to animal-painting, a See also:department in which he achieved his highest See also:artistic successes. His " Landscape with See also:Cattle," acquired for the See also:National See also:Gallery at a cost of (1500, was painted in 182o–1822 at the See also:suggestion of See also:West, in emulation of the " Bull of See also:Paul See also:Potter " at the See also:Hague. His " See also:Boa See also:Serpent Seizing a See also:Horse " was executed in 1822, and his admirable " See also:Grey Horse," shown in the Old Masters' See also:Exhibition of 1879, See also:dates from 1828. Ward also produced portraits, and many landscapes like the " Gordale Scar " and the " See also:Harlech See also:Castle " in the National Gallery. Sometimes he turned aside into the less fruitful paths of See also:allegory, as in his unsuccessful " See also:Pool of See also:Bethesda " (1818), and " See also:Triumph of the See also:Duke of See also:Wellington " (1818). He was a frequent contributor to the Royal Academy and the British Institution, and in 184.1 he collected one hundred and See also:forty examples of his See also:art, and exhibited them in his See also:house in See also:Newman Street. He was elected an See also:associate of the Royal Academy in 1807, and a full member in 1811, and died at See also:Cheshunt on the 23rd of See also:November 1859.
Ward compiled an autobiography, of which an abstract was published in the Art See also:Journal in ;849.
