James Dromgole Linton

Sir James Dromgole Linton was an English painter in oil and watercolour, and a lithographer.

Linton was born in London on 26 December 1840 and attended Leigh's School of Art. At the beginning of his career he was an illustrator and lithographer for The Graphic.

One of his most famous oil paintings is The Marriage of H.R.H. the Duke of Albany, which was commissioned by Queen Victoria (The marriage depicted is that of Prince Leopold, Duke of Albany in 1882). Charles T. Jacoby, brother of Sir James Alfred Jacoby, commissioned a series of five oil paintings illustrating the "History of a Soldier of the Sixteenth Century" entitled The Declaration of War, The Benediction, The Surrender, Victorious, and The Banquet.

Linton was elected an associate in 1867 and a member in 1870 of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours. He was president of the Royal Institute from 1884 to 1899 and then from 1909 until his death. In 1897 he won the Jubilee Medal. He was knighted in 1885.

He died at his home in Hampstead, London on 3 October 1916 and was buried on the western side of Highgate Cemetery. His grave (no. 21956) has no headstone or memorial.
