Frederick Goodall
British, 1822–1904
Frederick Goodall was a British Realism painter. 21 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum, most of them oil paintings. Frederick Goodall was born in London.
Frederick Goodall (17 September 1822 – 29 July 1904) was an English painter, normally of figure subjects, often on large scale. He painted many genre and historical subjects, and used his visits to Egypt in 1858 and 1870 to provide material both for Biblical subjects, and others treating contemporary Egyptian life. He exhibited work at the Royal Academy 27 times between 1838 and 1859, and was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy (ARA) in 1852 and a full Royal Academician (RA) in 1863.
He was extremely successful for most of his career, but his style fell from favour, and he was declared bankrupt in 1902. His father, two brothers and a sister, and two of his sons, were also notable painters.
