Artist Biography
Peter Graham RA (1836-1921) was a painter born in Edinburgh who trained at the Trustees' Academy under Robert Scott Lauder. Although he worked on figure subjects at first, a holiday in Deeside in 1859 inspired him to turn towards landscape painting. Having been well received at the Royal Scottish Academy where he started exhibiting in 1855, he also made a name for himself in England, becoming an Associate of the Royal Academy in London in 1877. He was elected a full member at the end of 1881 and a Senior Royal Academician in 1919.
Graham was also elected an Honorary Member of the Royal Scottish Academy and also showed at Agnew's, Royal Birmingham Society of Artists, Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts, Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, Manchester Academy of Fine Arts, South Wales Art Society, and Arthur Tooth and Sons.
