SUMMARY:From All Walks of Life
DESCRIPTION: This display explores the rich variety of genre paintings
	\, or subjects of everyday life\, from the Royal Academy’s own 
	collection. It starts with a group of so-called ‘fancy pictures
	’ which were popular in the 18th century. Fine examples of this
	 kind of painting are seen in Sir Thomas Lawrence’s Gipsy Girl 
	and the stunning Boy and Rabbit by Sir Henry Raeburn. The display cont
	inues with 19th century scenes of rustic life\, including works that r
	eflect a nostalgia for the simplicity of country life\, such as painti
	ngs by Thomas Faed\, Sir George Clausen and Stanhope Forbes. Other pai
	ntings\, like The Outcast by Richard Redgrave\, delve into serious con
	temporary issues\, in this case the plight of unmarried mothers. The l
	ater part of the display shows work by artists who recorded daily life
	 in foreign lands\, including JF Lewis’s jewel-like The Door of
	 a Café in Cairo and Henry La Thangue’s Violets for Perfume\
	, while many of the 20th century artists celebrate the vibrancy of cit
	y life as seen in Bill Jacklin’s The Rink\, 3pm.
