  • Frederick Goodall was an English artist. Goodall was born in London, England in 1822, the second son of steel line engraver Edward Goodall (1795-1870). He received his education at the Wellington Road Academy. Frederick's first commission, for Isambard Brunel, was six watercolour paintings of the Rotherhithe Tunnel. Four of these were exhibited at the Royal Academy when Frederick was 16. His first oil won a Society of Arts silver medal. He exhibited work at the Royal Academy 27 times between 1838 and 1859. He was elected Associate of the Royal Academy in 1852. Goodall visited Egypt in 1858 and again in 1870, both times travelling and camping with Bedouin tribesmen. In order to provide authentic detail to his paintings, Goodall brought back sheep and goats from Egypt. The Eyptian theme was prominent in his work, with 170 paintings being exhibited at the Royal Academy over 46 years. Goodall's work received high praise and acclaim from critics and artists alike and he earned a fortune from his paintings. He had a home built at Grim's Dyke, Harrow Weald, where he would entertain elaborate guests such as the Prince of Wales and Charles Dickens. Frederick's brother, Edward Angelo Goodall (1819-1908) was also a highly gifted artist who exhibited at the RA from 1846 to 1853. A specialist in watercolours, he was invited to join the RWS in 1856 and exhibited 328 pictures at its exhibitions. It was Edward who had the distressing task of arranging the sale of his brother's pictures and effects when he was declared bankrupt in 1902.

  • Frederick Goodall (17 de marzo de 1822 - 29 de julio de 1804 fue un pintor inglés nacido y muerto en Londres. Empezó sus estudios con su padre Edward, grabador y en 1836 la Society of Arts le otorgó una medalla y, al cabo de poco, premió su primer cuadro al óleo El cadáver de un minero. Luego viajó por Francia, Bélgica e Irlanda en donde pintó cuadros que tuvieron gran aceptación como El sueño del soldado y La fiesta de la aldea . En 1860 hizo otro viaje a Italia, en donde ensanchó grandemente la esfera de sus ideales, produciendo verdaderas obras maestras como La madrugada en el desierto, Mater dolorosa, etc. Entre sus últimos cuadros sobresalen: Los aguadores en Egipto; Interior de una mezquita; Menfis, etc. Sus primeras obras se caracterizan por una esmerada ejecución, mientras que las segundas brillan por una mayor amplitud de visión artística, sin menoscabo de la solidez. Sus acuarelas tienen aún mayor valor artístico que sus pinturas al óleo.
  • Era figlio del noto incisore e decoratore Edward Goodall. Dopo aver ricevuto l'educazione artistica alla Wellington Road Academy, Frederick entrò nel panorama artistico realizzando su commissione sei acquerelli raffiguranti il Rotherhithe tunnel, per Isambard Kingdom Brunel che ne fece esporre quattro alla Royal Academy nel 1838, quando Frederick aveva 16 anni. Con la sua prima tela, il pittore vinse la medaglia d'oro della Society of Arts, espose ventisette volte alla Royal Academy tra il 1838 e il 1859, e ne divenne membro nel 1852. Un importante punto nella sua carriera fu il suo viaggio in Egitto nel 1858, ripetuto nel 1870, durante il quale entrò in contatto con la cultura dei beduini e realizzò numerosi schizzi, portando con sé in patria materiale prelevato sul posto, compresi esemplari del bestiame locale. L'Egitto divenne il tema centrale delle sue opere, di cui oltre 170 sono ambientate lungo il Nilo. Oltre alle sue opere a carattere orientalista, va ricordata la produzione d'ispirazione shakespeariana, cui appartengono opere come Miranda, da La Tempesta. Le opere di Goodall ebbero enorme successo e gli valsero il plauso di numerosi personaggi dell'epoca, tra cui il Principe di Galles, futuro Edoardo VII, e Charles Dickens.
