William Henry Bartlett
Bartlett studied at the Ιcole des Beaux Arts in Paris under Gιrτme, Bouguereau and Fleury. He was elected RBA in 1879, around which time he also visited Ireland for the first time. Works exhibited in the early 1880s include Going to Market at Roundstone from Deer Island, West Coast of Ireland, An Evicted Tenant, Connemara and Waiting for the Turf Boats, Roundstone. He returned to Ireland frequently showing three works at the RHA (in 1897 and 1905) and in 1911 was recorded with an address in Donegal. From 1880 onwards he exhibited more than forty works at the RA. Other exhibiting venues included the Fine Art Society in London and the ROI. He is represented in the Brighton and Hove Museum and in the Ulster Museum, Belfast.
