Biography
John Dollman was born in Hove on May 6, 1851 , but later the family moved to London so that John could get an education in South Kensington and the Royal Academy of Arts . After graduation, John organized a studio in Bedford Park in London. John Dollman was a member of the Royal Academy from 1870 to 1912, became a member of the Royal Society of Watercolorists in 1913. Starting in the 1880s, Dollman worked as an illustrator for many magazines such as The Graphic . Illustrations were performed both in color and in black and white palette. It is believed that some of the early works of John Dollman influenced the work of Vincent Van Gogh [3] [4] .
Works
The central theme of John Dollman's works was mythological images, such as Vicing Foray . The picture Destroyers ( Eng. Ravagers ) depicts a horde of Vikings. The Unknown ( Eng. The Unknown ) of 1912 depicts a girl surrounded by chimpanzees. It should also be called here the picture of Orpheus and his lute with lions ( English Orpheus and his Lute with Lions ). Dollman, among other things, depicted on the canvas bold compositions of animals and people, such as Robinson Crusoe and His Friday ( English Robinson Crusoe and His Man Friday ), Polo ( English Polo ) and Mowgli - the leader of the Bander-logs ( English Mowgli made leader of the Bandar-log ) of 1903 [3] . Perhaps his best-known work is The London Cab Stand of 1888 [4] , where the plot focuses on horse-drawn horses standing in bad weather on London Street [5] . Dollman performed at least three versions of this picture, although this fact is no exception - in his work there is the creation of copies and his other paintings. In the 1890s, he portrayed a soldier. It is believed that Dollman's favorite genre was the illustration of people and animals. He also liked to depict wild animals without any storyline [4] .
Dollman's works are in the collections of many art galleries. Immigrants' Ship (1884) is stored in the Art Gallery of South Australia in the city of Adelaide [6] . The Destroyer ( eng. The ravenger ) at the Trustees of the Royal Society of Watercolorists in London [7] . One of the versions of the Unknown in the Laing Art Gallery of Newcastle upon Mystery . The London Cab Stand is located at the Museum of London . A Dog's Home, Table d'Hote (1879) is in the Liverpool Walker Art Gallery [8] , During the Time of the Sermonses (1886) - at the Harris Preston Museum [9] , Famine ( English Famine , 1904) - in Salford art gallery [10] .
John Charles Dollman died on December 11, 1934, at the age of 83. He was the father of the zoologist and taxonomist Guy Dollman .
