Matthew Cotes Wyatt
Matthew Cotes Wyatt (1777 – 3 January 1862) was a painter and sculptor and a member of the Wyatt family, who were well known in the Victorian era as architects and sculptors.
==Early life==
Wyatt was born in London, the son of James Wyatt, the architect. He was the brother of Benjamin Dean Wyatt, the architect. Wyatt was educated at Eton College and joined the Royal Academy Schools in 1800. On 29 December 1801 he married Maria McClellan (d. 1852), the widow of Edward McClellan, a sea captain. They had fours sons, Matthew, James, George, and Henry Wyatt.
Through the influences of his father, in 1805 at the age of 28, he was employed by George III on several works at Windsor Castle, restoring and extending Antonio Verrio's ceilings in the remodelled state rooms.〔Obituary in the 'Gentleman's Magazine' 1862 pg 372〕 From 1800 to 1814 Wyatt exhibited portraits and historical subjects in oils at the Royal Academy.〔The exhibition of the Royal Academy (exhibition catalogues)〕 He was proposed for associate membership of the Academy in 1812, but was not elected and never became a member. At about this time he taught himself modelling and carving, moving from painting to sculpture, hoping to benefit from the proposals for great memorials after the Battle of Waterloo in 1815.〔F. M. O'Donoghue, ‘Wyatt, Matthew Cotes (1777–1862)’, rev. John Martin Robinson, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004〕 His first public work was a memorial sculpture to Lord Nelson that was unveiled at Exchange Flags Square in Liverpool, in October 1813.〔〔() Mersey Maritime Museum website〕
