Born in the verdant splendor of Ireland, in the vibrant city of Cork on January 25, 1806, Daniel Maclise began his life's journey that would make him one of the defining painters of his time. His destiny as an artist became apparent early on, his talent honed and developed at the local art school. His skills did not escape the attention of the Royal Academy of Arts in London, which welcomed him into its hallowed halls in 1828. Maclise was not an artist content with the average. The very year after his admission to the Academy, he made his first artistic debut with a portrait of Malvolio, a character from Shakespeare's play.
Maclise's artistic drive did not abate. He traveled throughout France, taking inspiration from the culture and lifestyle there, and presented his amazing portraits the next year. His efforts were rewarded in 1831 with the Gold Medal for his painting "The Choice of Hercules." In addition, Maclise filled Fraser's Magazine with a wealth of sketches and caricatures and many images to accompany poems. This varied work and his devotion to art led him to be admitted as a member candidate to the Royal Academy of Arts in 1835 and as a full member in 1840. He found inspiration not only in London, but also while traveling. Paris, the cultural heart of Europe, called to him in 1844 and 1855, and in 1855 he also traveled to Italy, where he was inspired by the lush art scene. Back home, in 1857, he completed a gallery of sketches that highlighted the story of the Norman Conquest of England.
