Artist Biography
Benjamin Rawlinson Faulkner (1787 – 1849): A Manchester Portraitist
Benjamin Rawlinson Faulkner was an English portrait painter born in Manchester, marking the beginning of a career distinguished by both artistic talent and quiet observation. Initially involved in mercantile pursuits—representing a sizable firm at Gibraltar—Faulkner’s life took an unexpected turn when his health deteriorated during a visit to Gibraltarian quarantine due to plague. This experience profoundly impacted him, fostering a newfound passion for drawing that was nurtured by his brother, Joshua Wilson Faulkner, who himself possessed considerable artistic skill. Recognizing this latent ability, Faulkner dedicated himself to rigorous study of the foundational principles of art, spending upwards of two years immersed in the examination of classical sculpture and painting—a testament to his unwavering commitment to mastering technique. His relocation to London propelled him into the bustling artistic milieu of Victorian England, where he established himself as a portrait artist. However, Faulkner’s personality was inherently modest and retiring, resulting in an understated recognition of his accomplishments compared to the acclaim enjoyed by fellow artists in Manchester. Despite this lack of public fanfare, Faulkner steadily gained respect within his hometown community, primarily through his captivating depictions of prominent figures—most notably John Dalton, F.R.S., and John McCulloch, the geologist. These portraits exemplify Faulkner’s meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of oil paint, capturing not only physical likeness but also conveying intellectual depth and character. Faulkner debuted at the Royal Academy in 1821, presenting two canvases that garnered initial attention. He continued to participate in exhibitions throughout his lifetime—including the British Institution, Suffolk Street Gallery, Liverpool Academy, and others—demonstrating a consistent dedication to furthering his artistic practice. His compositions predominantly featured portraits, though he occasionally ventured into studies of natural subjects, reflecting an appreciation for observation beyond the human form. He resided at 23 Newman Street for many years, cultivating a tranquil life amidst London’s vibrant cultural landscape until his passing in Fulham on October 29th, 1849, at the age of sixty-three. Faulkner's legacy resides not only in his impressive oeuvre but also in his contribution to British art history. His work stands as an exemplar of Romantic portraiture—characterized by expressive brushwork and a nuanced portrayal of psychological states—influenced by the artistic traditions of antiquity and the burgeoning fascination with scientific inquiry. Notable engravings of his paintings, undertaken by artists like R.J. Lane and H. Robinson, ensured that Faulkner’s images endured beyond his lifetime, securing his place as a respected artist within his era. Furthermore, portraits commissioned by figures such as Sir John Ross, the Arctic explorer, cemented his reputation for capturing both grandeur and intimacy—a hallmark of his artistic vision.- Notable Works: Portraits of John Dalton, F.R.S.; John McCulloch; Charles Lloyd; Sir John Ross
