Charles Gregory (1849 – 1920) was born in London on the 25th March 1849. With his artistic talents apparent from a young age, his parents enrolled him to study at the Royal Academy schools, where he particularly excelled in watercolour painting.

Gregory’s work predominantly focuses on rural life in the small villages of Southern England. After his coastal travels, Gregory would settle in Ripley and then Godalming in Surrey, before settling in Marlow. The subject matter provided by these settings proved immensely popular with the Victorian public in a period where rural countryside in the south was rapidly being confined to isolated pockets.

While they still carried an air of romanticism, his works were underpinned by technical and observational confidence gleaned from his years working in Australia and studies at the Royal Academy; the combination of genre painting and landscaping lending a unique air to Gregory’s paintings
