Archibald Thorburn R.A.
1860 - 1935
Archibald Thorburn was a Scottish artist, a bird and animal illustrator, painting mostly in watercolour. He painted birds, flowers
and animals but specialised in the study of game birds as he had a vast knowledge of ornithology.
He first exhibited at the Royal Academy when he was just 20 years old and he exhibited there regularly in the 1880's and
1890's. He was highly regarded by his contemporaries and painted Queen Victoria on 3 separate occasions.
