Albert Moore |
 |
| Born: 1841 - Died: 1893. |
| Moore came from a Yorkshire family of artists; he had fourteen brothers and sisters in all. Moore entered the R.A. schools in 1858. His early works shows the influence of Ruskin.
In 1859 he was in France with the architect William Eden Nesfield, and in the winter of 1862-63, he was in Rome with his brother John Collingham Moore. It was here that he painted Elijah's Sacrifice, in 1863, which shows the influence of Ford Madox Brown and Edward Armitage..
The 1860s saw Moore designing tiles, wallpaper and stained glass for Morris, Marshall, Faulkner and Co., and working as an ecclesiastic and domestic mural painter, with clear neoclassical influences on his work. Moore was a regular exhibitor at the Grosvenor Gallery from 1877 onwards and also exhibited at the Royal Academy.
In 1865 Moore met and came under the influence of Whistler, he shared Moore's interest in classical subjects, and their work became closely connected between 1867 and 1870. This closeness of style and toga clad women resulted in Whistler becoming so concerned about the similarity between his work and Moore's that in 1870 called in Nesfield to arbitrate. However, Whistler moved away from classically inspired subject matter, and there was no lasting antagonism between them.
In the last few years of Moore's life he worked in tempera as well as oils. Moore was an eccentric, sharing his life with his daschund dog, and an army of cats, which effectively took over his home. Not only was he unconcerned by personal comfort, he really failed to look after himself.
From the early 1880s his health started to decline, and in the early 1890s he developed the cancerous growth on his thigh which killed him. Moore spent his last months in a grim race with death, struggling to complete his large picture “The Loves of The Winds and The Seasons.”
Moore chose to devote the short time left to him working on this picture, and excluded from his life old friends.
