John Graham-Gilbert (1794 – 4 June 1866) was a portrait painter and art collector. ==Life== Graham-Gilbert was born in Glasgow as John Graham, the son of a West India merchant and was at first trained in his father's counting-house, but preferred art and travelled to London in 1818 where he was admitted into the Royal Academy. In 1819 he won a silver medal for best drawing from the antique, and in 1821 a gold medal for his historical painting of ‘The Prodigal Son.’ He established himself in London as a portrait-painter, and contributed to the exhibitions of the Royal Academy from 1820 to 1823. He then went to Italy to study old masters of the Venetian school. He settled in Edinburgh in 1827, and sent a portrait to the first exhibition of the Royal Scottish Academy. In 1834 he married the wealthy heiress Miss Jane Gilbert of Yorkhill. He added her name to his, and moved to her native Glasgow. He remained an exhibitor at the Royal Scottish Academy, but from 1844 he also exhibited at the Royal Academy in London. He died at Yorkhill.
