John Doyle

|
Born in Dublin into a family of Wexford origins, John Doyle studied at the RDS Drawing School, receiving a medal there at the tender age of eight. He was also a private pupil of the Dublin based Italian artist Gaspare Gabrielli and the Irish miniaturist John Comerford. At an early age he specialised in painting horses. In 1921 he moved to London where he began a long-running series of political cartoons under the pseudonym 'HB', using a detailed, realistic form of drawing quite different from other cartoonists of the day. He maintained links with Ireland; his third son, Henry Edward Doyle RHA (1827-1892) who was later to become Director of the National Gallery of Ireland, was born in Dublin. |
