Artist Biography

Drawing master, miniature painter and landscape watercolourist Edwin Aaron Penley (1826-1893) was the nephew of the artist Aaron Edwin Penley (1807-1870), whose manner he closely imitated. He was commissioned by Queen Victoria to paint six views of the interior of the royal yacht ‘Victoria and Albert II’ in 1864, as a memento of her voyages aboard the yacht with Prince Albert. He showed eleven works at the Royal Society of British Artists in Suffolk Street between 1853 and 1872 and also exhibited his work at other exhibition venues.
