Oil Portrait Actor David Garrick By Thomas Horner
OIL PORTRAIT PAINTING OF FAMOUS ACTOR DAVID GARRICK BY ARTIST THOMAS HORNER GEORGE IV REGENCY PERIOD C1807 TO C1820 SIZE H26 X W23 INCHES
DAVID GARRICK (19 February 1717 – 20 January 1779)
Was an English actor, playwright, theatre manager and producer who influenced nearly all aspects of theatrical practice throughout the 18th century and was a pupil and friend of Dr Samuel Johnson. He appeared in a number of amateur theatricals, and with his appearance in the title role of Shakespeare's Richard III audiences and managers began to take notice.
Impressed by his portrayals of Richard III and a number of other roles, Charles Fleetwood engaged Garrick for a season at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. He remained with the Drury Lane company for the next five years and purchased a share of the theatre with James Lacy. This purchase inaugurated 29 years of Garrick's management of the Drury Lane, during which time it rose to prominence as one of the leading theatres in Europe. At his death at his house in Adelphi Buildingshe London,three years after his retirement from Drury Lane and the stage, was given a lavish public funeral at Westminster Abbey where he was laid in Poets' Corner.
Mrs. Garrick survived her husband by 43 years.

ARTIST THOMAS HORNOR (1785–1844)
Was also an English land surveyor, artist, and inventor.
Born on 12 June 1785 into the Quaker family of a grocer in Hull, Hornor (sometimes spelled Horner) learned surveying and engineering from his brother-in-law. Soon after 1800 he surveyed the Free Grammar School in Manchester, and was settled in London by 1807. He lived in Kentish Town, Chancery Lane, and then Church Court, Inner Temple, whence he undertook valuations as well as surveys and levelling of canals and drains.
In 1814 Hornor was advertising himself in S Wales as a ‘Pictural Delineator of Estates’[4] and soliciting commissions for the summer. He was successful and became wealthy producing bound portfolio volumes of plans, panoramas, watercolour paintings, all linked by exquisite copperplate handwritten accounts of tours in the area for at least nine wealthy families.
He has been noted as having had a penchant for painting moonlit scenes, and he also painted inside the Porth-yr-Ogof cave,[8] whereas other artists painted only from outside.
By 1820, he was in London again and began a project to depict the view of London from the dome of St Paul's Cathedral. Initial plans to sell panoramic views came to nothing but an elaborate scheme to create a 360 degree panorama on the inside of a dome of the Colosseum,[9] specially built in Regents Park (and resembling the Roman Pantheon rather than the Colosseum), came to fruition but at such expense that his principal backer, Rowland Stephenson MP, had to flee to America in 1828, soon followed by Horner.
