The works of Philip Richard Morris are versatile and beautiful. Whether with engraving, lithography, oil or watercolour, the artist showed great talent and created a world of light and restraint, peaceful scenes in the midst of flower meadows, wild landscapes by the sea and, again and again, religious motifs. His strong influence on William Holman Hunt is particularly reflected in the numerous paintings of saints and biblical depictions. But he was also taken with simple country life and his pictures of seashores, meadows and forests impress with their warmth and peacefulness.
But actually, Philip Richard Morris should first take a completely different path. He was born in 1836 in Davenport as the son of an English iron founder and was also to be trained in the craft of iron casting. Morris discovered his passion for painting and drawing at an early age, but saw no opportunity to assert himself against his father's will. Only when William Holman Hunt, a friend of the family, convinced his father of his son's talent was Morris allowed to attend art courses in the evening school of the British Museum before he was accepted into the Royal Academy School from 1855. With his painting "The Good Samaritan", Morris won a travel grant through his school and was able to go on extended trips to Italy and France, where he finally stayed for ten years. In France he found inspiration for many of his works, which became increasingly popular due to their warmth and attention to detail.
Although Morris was not one of the most famous artists of his time, his paintings sold well in England and his religious paintings in particular were very popular. After his return to London things slowly became calmer around him. He had to fight with health problems and also did not paint as many pictures as before or at least did not exhibit them in public anymore. In 1877 he was employed as a teacher at the renowned Royal Academy of Arts and in 1878 he married his wife Catherine, with whom he had five children. Family and working life seemed to take up a lot of his time and energy and not much is known about his creative period in his later years. In 1900, Philip Richard Morris retired and died a little later in 1902 in London.
