Description
Signed Watercolour of San Giorgio Maggiore Venice By Arthur Perigal, Royal Scottish Academy Artist. With boats and gondolas on the water and San Giorgio Maggiore to the right.
Signed to the lower right. Circa 1870
Elected ARSA: 15 December 1841
Elected RSA: 10 February 1868
Born in London in 1816, Perigal was brought to Edinburgh in very early life. Following the example of his father — who was an artist and a pupil of Fuseli, he turned his talents to landscape painting, though for many years he was also a very successful teacher.
Very soon, his art enthusiasm led him to devote himself wholly to the practice of his profession. His subjects were generally taken from mountain and lock scenery in Scotland, though latterly his frequent visits to Italy and Switzerland led him to extend the range of his art practice.
Perigal was elected an Associate in 1841, and attained the rank of Academician in 1868. To the Annual Exhibitions he was a regular and liberal contributor, generally having his full quota of work, and the duties he had officially to perform never interfered with his devotion to his art.
Of a kindly, genial disposition, he was personally esteemed by all his professional brethren; and his sudden removal was deplored by the Academic body of which he was a consistent and steady support.
Arthur Perigal, esteemed Treasurer and one of the oldest Members of the Academy, passed away suddenly on June 5th, 1884.
