Matthew Ridley Corbet (20 May 1850 –– 25 June 1902) was a Victorian neoclassical painter.〔(Matthew Ridley Corbet (1850-1902) ) (The Corbett One Name Study).〕 ==Life== He was born on 20 May 1850 at South Willingham, Lincolnshire, was son of the Rev. Andrew Corbet and Marianne Ridley. He was educated at Cheltenham College, and coming to London entered the Royal Academy schools. He attended classes at the Slade School of Art under Alexander Davis Cooper and later at the Royal Academy Schools under Frederic Leighton, President of the Academy. Corbet went to Italy in 1880 and met Giovanni Costa, one of Leighton's friends in Rome. For the next three years he stayed and painted with Costa, eventually becoming one of the leading figures of the Macchiaioli school. He concentrated on Italian landscapes and exhibited at the Grosvenor Gallery, the New Gallery, the Royal Academy and the Paris Salon. His ''Sunrise'' gained a bronze medal at the Paris Exhibition of 1889; and his ''Morning Glory'' (1894) and ''Val d'Arno Evening'' (1901), bought under the terms of the Chantrey Bequest, are now in the Tate Gallery. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Matthew Ridley Corbet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
