William Redmore Bigg
William Redmore Bigg (6 January 1755 – 6 February 1828) was an English painter.
Bigg was born in Felsted, Essex, to William and Grace Bigg. He enrolled in the Royal Academy schools in 1778 where he studied under Edward Penny (1714–1791) RA whose forte was depicting acts of charity. Bigg's greatest delight was in painting children. His first work in this genre to be exhibited in 1778 was ''Schoolboys giving Charity to a Blind Man''. A year later he painted a similar work, ''A Lady and her Children relieving a Distressed Cottager''. Apart from these his ''Palemon and Lavinia'', the ''Shipwrecked Sailor Boy'', and ''Youths relieving a Blind Man'' were very well received, and all were engraved. His subject choice and execution place him with Wheatley and George Morland. Bigg produced many small portraits in oil and pastel, as well as rustic genre paintings. His genre paintings and portraits have great charm and were highly popular in his day, the best engravers being used to render his work.〔(Donald Heald )〕
Bigg exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy and the British Institution until his death. After having been an associate for many years, he was elected an RA in 1814. He died in London.
