Frank Dicksee |
 |
| Born: 1853 - Died: 1928. |
| Frank Dicksee was a member of a noted artistic family, his was the son and pupil of Thomas Francis Dicksee, plus his brother, and sister were both well-known painters. Dicksee was a star student at the Royal Academy schools, earning many distinctions and medals. Dicksee made his reputation with the famous painting, which was exhibited at the Academy in 1877, titled “Harmony”, and bought by the Chantry Bequest He specialized in romantic historical scenes however in the later part of his career he concentrated on society portraits, which were very remunerative. Dicksee’s paintings contain elements of Watts, Burne-Jones and other the Pre-Raphaelites. Dicksee was at his most popular at the turn of the century.
In 1900 he was awarded a medal at the Paris Universal Exhibition. The year before his painting 'The Two Crowns' had been voted the most popular picture at the Royal Academy summer exhibition.
Dicksee lived in St John’s Wood, and remained a bachelor. He was, of course, one of the nineteenth century artists who outlived his time, he was very unhappy with developments in the early twentieth century. In 1924 he was elected to President of the Royal Academy, but this was seen by many as a mere concession to his seniority as opposed to his position in the art world. By the end of his career he was opposed to modernism of any kind and was regarded as old-fashioned by his contemporaries. Dicksee was knighted in 1925 and died in 1928.
