About the artwork

Realistic acrylic painting of Briton Rivière (London, 14 August 1840 - 20 April 1920) with his painting Fidelity , all painted by the Dutch fine artist Paul Meijering - the original painting is 90 x 120 cm and part of a permanent collection.

Briton was educated at Cheltenham College and Oxford, where he graduated in 1867. For his art education, he was almost entirely indebted to his father.

His first paintings appeared at the British Institution and in 1857 he exhibited three works at the Royal Academy, but it was not until 1863 that he became a regular contributor to the Academy's exhibitions. That year he was represented by The Eve of the Spanish Armada, and in 1864 by a Romeo and Juliet. Such subjects did not attract him for long, however, as in 1865, with Sleeping Deerhound, he began a series of paintings of animal subjects that took up much of the rest of his life.

Early in his career, Rivière impressed as an illustrator, starting with Punch. In 1878 he was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy of Arts and a Royal Academician in 1881, and in 1891 he obtained the degree of doctor of civil law at Oxford. His wife, Mary Alice Rivière whom he married in 1867, was a painter and briefly exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts. After his death, she donated four of his drawings (and an etching "The king drinks") to the British Museum. The artist and his wife had seven children; five sons and two daughters.
