Charles Haigh-Wood, (British, 1856-1927) was a genre painter, who lived in London, Bury
and Taplow, Buckinghamshire.
Haigh-Wood’s
enchanting visions of romance, with attractive girls and pretty dresses are
some of the most endearing and popular of all images. His patrons adored them,
a successful businessman of Haigh-Wood’s day with any pretension to artistic
taste had to own one.
He
exhibited from 1874 to 1904, at the Royal Academy from 1879 to 1904, Suffolk
Street, New Watercolour Society and elsewhere.
Titles at the Royal Academy include “The Harvest Moon”
1879, “Chatterboxes” 1889 and “The Old Love and the New” 1901. More
