Charles Parsons Knight
ARTISTOn February 15, 1829, a new facet unfolded on the rich cultural tapestry of England when Charles Parsons Knight saw the light of day. The fifth scion of Rev. Canon Knight, then rector of Saint Michael's, he enjoyed an education shaped by his father's artistic and literary friends. Knight grew up in Bristol, a city that instilled in him an indelible passion for seafaring that manifested itself in the imaginative sketches of his youth. His insatiable curiosity led him to join Messrs. Green as a midshipman. An adventure voyage to Calcutta and back, however, introduced him to the harsh realities of seafaring, and he chose to express his longing for the sea artistically rather than indulge it practically. Knight subsequently immersed himself deeply in the art world where, instead of training formally under a master, he honed his artistic skills at the Bristol Academy's School of Life.
