Talk:Stephen Reid (artist)

Wonder if this is Stephen Reid, though he was not a Londoner... Lotje (talk) 15:56, 30 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

The book it's taken from (Notable Londoners) is online at the Internet Archive, and it's pretty clear from the bio it's our man:

"Mr. Reid was educated at Gordon's College, Aberdeen, taking up his art studies at Gray's School of Art, Aberdeen, and at the Royal Scottish Academy Life School, Edinburgh. His works have been exhibited at all the principal galleries including the R.B.A., the R.A., the R.S.A, and the R.I., and at most of the important provincial exhibitions. Among the more notable of his pictures are "Ophelia" (1914) and "Macbeth" (1918), and a series of historical pictures executed for the Reading Corporation Art Gallery should also be mentioned. Mr. Reid is also well-known for his excellent work as illustrator in black and white. His frescoe paintings form prominent examples of his versatility, some of these going to Boston, U.S.A. Mr. Reid's hobby is collecting old furniture. (Photo: Elliott & Fry)"

Good find. He presumably lived and worked in London. --Nicknack009 (talk) 17:23, 30 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
