The Portrait Society | Frederick Sandys
Frederick Sandys was an English painter, draughtsman and illustrator. He was initially trained by his father, who was himself a painter. From 1846, Frederick attended the Norwich School of Design and won the first prizes for his work in the same year. From 1848, he lived in London and exhibited his work for the first time at the Royal Academy in 1851. Sandys published numerous caricatures, worked as an illustrator for several magazines and produced many paintings influenced by the Flemish and German masters of the early 16th century. Sandys' monogram, too, was inspired by Albrecht Dürer and consisted of his superimposed initials AFS (Anthony Frederick Sandys). Sandys had numerous children by several women, led an extravagant lifestyle and frequently gambled away his money. Although he was a sought-after, successful artist for decades, he died penniless in 1904.
