I John Singleton Copleys liv
Hela livet1774–1815 · Arbetsort
London
c. 1800 – 1815
Last years: debts and disappointments
The Napoleonic Wars bring hard times, the house on George Street is expensive to keep up, and a talented son’s education is costly. The equestrian portrait of the Prince Regent brings no return and other canvases that took years of labour go unsold; Copley dies heavily in debt.
1810
A bad fall keeps him from painting for a month
In 1810 Copley has a bad fall that keeps him from painting for a month; he incessantly bewails the loss of his Boston property. On 11 December his wife writes that every difficulty of living is increasing while the advantages of his profession are decreasing.
