Edward Pritchett was one of the most gifted and successful 19th century British painters Venetian scenes. Unlike a great many of his contemporaries, Pritchett spent time working in Venice whilst on a sketching tour of Europe in 1828. Every other biography of Pritchett you will have ever read will claim that “little is known of his life” other than he “spent more than three decades living and working in Venice”. Neither statement is true.
