John Hanson Walker was born in 1844 in Bath, the son of a dealer in curiosities. He sat as a model for Lord Frederick Leighton (1830-96 q.v.), who described him as having 'intelligent looks.' Leighton encouraged him to become an artist, and Walker went on to attend the Royal Academy Schools and exhibited there from 1872 to 1918. He worked with Leighton in the early 1860s and became a fashionable society portrait painter. Many of his portraits are held by the National Trust, Derby Museum and Art Gallery, and Victoria Art Gallery, Bath. His son, John Hanson Walker (1874-1946), was a painter of animal subjects.
