Brief Biography-John Glover of Leicester was a landscape watercolourist. In 1805, he became president of the Watercolour Society in London and was a British Artists Society member. In 1831, Glover went to Tasmania and remained there for the rest of his life. He achieved high esteem through his landscapes, many of which were sent back to England and realised at high prices. His works also sold well in France. A statue of him now stands in Evandale, Tasmania, appreciating his enrichment of art in Australia. |
