Celtic legends and folklore shaped the painter Joseph Noel Paton, born in Scotland in 1821. Paton also made a name for himself as a poet, sculptor and illustrator. It showed that Paton's artistic work was not limited to painting alone. Paton came from a family that made money by making damask. He himself tried his hand at business for a short time and worked as a designer in a cotton factory. In the end, however, Paton saw his destiny in art. Interestingly, two of his siblings were also artists: Amelia, his sister, was a sculptor, his brother Waller Hugh worked as a landscape painter.
In 1843 Paton studied for a short time in London at the academy of arts. Here he met the painter John Everett Millais. Through Millais Paton came into contact with the group of painters of the Pre-Raphaelites. Their models were the Nazarenes and Italian painting of the 14th and 15th centuries. The group was interested in faithful reproduction of nature and a vivid depiction of man. Paton himself devoted his painting to allegorical, religious, fairy-tale and historical themes.
"The Struggle of Oberon and Titania" is a fine example of how Paton, with a huge arsenal of partly fairy-tale, partly mythological figures and a rich palette of colours, stages an extremely lively painting that convinces with skilful perspective. Paton received a prize for this painting at the Royal Scottish Academy. He also made a name for himself as an illustrator: in 1842 Paton illustrated the "Book of British Ballads" at the suggestion of the journalist Samuel Carter Hall, who valued Paton's literary education. Paton died in 1901 as a highly decorated citizen and artist.
