Artist Biography
Joseph Slater was a son of Joseph Slater of Bromley, portraitist and decorator. Slater worked as a portraitist in London, exhibiting his first picture at the Royal Academy in 1803, where his portraits were exhibited regularly between 1806 and 1833. Since 1813, he was a portraitist at the Grillion's Club in London. Many of Joseph Slater's portraits were published as lithographs by his brother Isaac Wane Slater. They both worked in John Bacon's studio at 17 Newman Street since 1805. Later, the brothers moved into their own studio with a shop at 70 Newman Street. Slater worked predominantly in pencil, crayons, and watercolor. He was very prolific; his heritage counts about two hundred portraits. He died in Brighton at the age of 55.
