ABOUT THE ARTIST
Henry Thomas Alken (12 October 1785 – 7 April 1851) was an English painter and engraver born in Soho Westminster London , and was chiefly known as a caricaturist and illustrator of sporting subjects and coaching scenes.His most prolific period of painting and drawing occurred between 1816 and 1831.
-
Young Henry first studied under his father and then with the miniature painter John Thomas Barber Beaumont (1774–1841)
-
From about 1816 onwards Alken "produced an unending stream of paintings, drawings and engravings of every type of field and other sporting activity,"and his soft-ground etchings were often colored by hand.
-
Alken worked in both oil and watercolor and was a skilled etcher.
Alken provided the plates picturing hunting, coaching, racing and steeplechasing for The National Sports of Great Britain (London, 1821).
Alken, known as an avid sportsman,is best remembered for his hunting prints, many of which he engraved himself until the late 1830s.
Alken died in April 1851 and was buried in Highgate cemetery
