For many artists it is difficult to earn money with their talent. This was also the case for David James, who sought his fortune in London in the second half of the 19th century. He was determined to make it big with his painting. While he had no formal training, he was gifted and full of dedication to his craft. At the beginning of his career, James lived in abject poverty and worked as a street artist to ensure his survival. Despite this, he never gave up. He was persistent, which eventually paid off: an art dealer discovered him and was fascinated by his work. Through this friendship, and the financial support he received as a result, James was able to develop his painting further. He found recognition and the opportunity for a better life, and one day was even able to exhibit his works at the Royal Academy.
