He therefore attended the Heatherley School of Fine Arts in order to increase his chances for a place at the Royal Academy. At the age of 17 he was finally able to enrol at the Academy. Hughes preferred to paint with watercolor and gouache, but also produced some important oil paintings. The greatest influence on his paintings was his uncle Arthur Hughes, a famous artist associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Edward Robert lived for a while with his uncle and his family.
As in the paintings of his uncle, elements of Pre-Raphaelism can be seen in Hughes, but aestheticism also played a role. Hughes was an accomplished artist who displayed a great deal of ambition and perfectionism. He enjoyed experimenting with sophisticated and new painting techniques. For his paintings he made countless studies, some of which were so good that they could have been exhibited without further ado. Hughes was widely recognized within the artist community and held many important offices during his life. He was a member of the Artists Guild and later a full member of the Royal Watercolour Society. His painting "The Witch" was presented by the Royal Watercolour Society as a gift for the coronation of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra.
Probably through his uncle's connections, Edward Robert Hughes also came into contact with William Holden Hunt, one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. When Hunt fell ill with glaucoma at an advanced age, Edward Robert Hughes became his studio assistant for a time and helped him with his work. He was significantly involved in at least two of Hunt's paintings, "The Light of the World" and "The Lady of Shalott". Hughes' own most famous works include "Midsummer Eve" and "Night With Her Train of Stars". At the age of about 62, Hughes fell ill with appendicitis and died after surgery. His marriage with Emily Eliza Davis remained childless.
