      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">John Vanderbank was a well-known English portrait painter who worked under King George I.

Vanderbank received his first artistic instruction from his father, who helped build his drawing and painting foundation. Through his father, Vanderbank was also introduced to the portrait painter, Jonathan Richardson.</p>

      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Vanderbank received a formal education at James Thornhill’s art academy in London. Vanderbank was one of the first students to study at the academy. The young artist studied from 1711 to 1720, working alongside Sir Godfrey Kneller. During his nine years of schooling, Vanderbank gained the skills and mastery to found his own academy. Vanderbank joined forces with Louis Cheron to form St. Martin’s Lane. Vanderbank’s academy emphasized life drawing and helped to reform art education in England.</p>
