Book Description
Excerpt from George Morland, Painter, London (1763-1804) Morland family, and because it is by an artist of some standing and knowledge. No attempt in Dawe's bio graphy, or in these pages, is made to extenuate George Morland's faults, but the reader will be gratified to learn that the artist's life, which is invariably depicted by recent writers in such dark colours, possessed many good features. Like his contemporary, Robert Burns, George Morland may lay claim to that gentle forbearance which, in consideration of sterling work performed, ought always to be extended to genius.

Book Description
Excerpt from George Morland, Painter, London (1763-1804) If the celebrity of a man at his death may be gauged by the number of biographies of him which then make their appearance, George Morland must have died famous. No fewer than four 'Lives' of the artist appeared shortly after his death, written respectively by William Collins (1805), F. W. Blagdon (1806), J. Hassell (1806), and George Dawe, R.A.(1807). All four may be consulted in the British Museum, but will with difficulty be met with elsewhere. In these circumstances, a new biography seems at least permissible, more particularly as George Morland still remains a famous man and numbers a greater multitude of admirers than ever. His pictures somehow appeal to the English people as no others do - perhaps because he was so thorough an Englishman himself, and because he painted English subjects in a way no man ever did before or has done since.
