27 works by John Russell (British, 1745–1806) are catalogued on Archive Lane, free to preview and available to download or order as a print.
John Russel, a British rococo painter, came from a wealthy family. His father worked as a book and art dealer. John's first impressions of this literary and artistic environment fell on fertile ground. In addition, John's father drew in his free time out of hobby and inspired the son with it. Russell received painting lessons as a child and later attended the art school of the Royal Academy. In 1770 one of his portrait drawings was awarded the gold medal. John Russel was a deeply religious man who regularly wrote down his feelings and fears in diaries.
