Artist Biography

Illustrator and painter, born in Plymouth, and educated there. He studied art under his father, also Charles Edward Brittan (1837-1888) with whom he is often confused. His father was a well-known painter of animals. He exhibited at the Newlyn Art Gallery, Plymouth Society of Artists, Royal Academy and Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours and had a show at St James’ Galleries in 1901. He also held a one-person show at the Ackermann Gallery, London. He was known as a painter of watercolours, particularly of moorland scenes, and HM Queen Mary purchased his work. Brittan, who has work in the Torre Abbey Museum, died in Tavistock, Devon.
