Archibald Thorburn...Artist

Archibald was born in 1860, near Edinburgh. From an early age he painted birds, animals and flowers but he specialised in the study of game birds, because he had a tremendous knowledge of ornithology. His reputation was firmly established by his contribution to Lord Lilford's magisterial survey 'Coloured Figures of the Birds of the British Isles', which was published between 1885 and 1898.

His first exhibition was at the Royal Academy at the age of 20, and was a regular figure there throughout the 1880s and 1890s. Archibald was also sufficiently highly-regarded by his contemporaries to have been asked to paint Queen Victoria on three separate occasions. Generally preferring to work in watercolour, his skill, artistic talent and scientific observation ensured that he was recognised as one of the leading artists of his time. he died in 1935.
