威廉·雷德莫尔·比格
迷人的英国风俗画与肖像
威廉·雷德莫尔·比格（William Redmore Bigg，皇家艺术学院院士）是一位英国画家。 比格出生于埃塞克斯郡的费尔斯特德，父母是威廉和格蕾丝·比格。他于1778年进入皇家艺术学院学校学习，师从爱德华·佩尼（Edward Penny，皇家艺术学院院士，1714–1791），后者擅长描绘慈善行为。比格最大的乐趣在于绘制儿童题材。他在此类题材中首件于1778年展出的作品是《学童向盲人施舍》。一年后，他创作了一幅类似的作品《一位女士和她的孩子们救济贫困的村舍居民》。 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. 比格定期在皇家艺术学院和英国艺术学会展出作品，直至去世。在担任副院士多年后，他于1814年当选为皇家艺术学院院士。他在伦敦逝世。
