Robert Burford : ウィキペディア英語版 | Robert Burford Robert Burford (1791 - 30 Jan. 1861) was an English painter of panoramas. ==Life== Burford was born in 1791 and first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1812 with ''A View of Westminster Hall''. In conjunction with fellow artist Henry Aston Barker, he opened a panorama on a site later occupied by the Strand Theatre. It was then moved to Leicester Square, where for many years it formed one of the chief attractions of London. Burford exhibited a succession of panoramas of the chief places of interest in Europe, all of which he visited himself in order to obtain accurate drawings. John Ruskin visited the exhibition as a boy, and spoke in high praise of Burford's abilities in his autobiography ''Praeterita'' (1885, p200).〔 Burford died at his home, 35 Camden Road Villas, Camden, London, on 30 January 1861, just after finishing a view of Naples and Messina.
