He sat as a model for Lord Frederick Leighton (1830-96 q.v.), who described him as having 'intelligent looks.' Leighton encouraged him to become an artist, and Walker went on to attend the Royal Academy Schools and exhibited there from 1872 to 1918. He worked with Leighton in the early 1860s and became a fashionable society portrait painter. Many of his portraits are held by the National Trust, Derby Museum and Art Gallery, and Victoria Art Gallery, Bath. His son, John Hanson Walker (1874-1946), was a painter of animal subjects.

Sulis Fine Art traces its origins back four generations. Benjamin Diamond opened a picture framing factory in Midtown Manhattan in the early 20th century. Originally known as Royal Art, the business worked closely with artists and museum institutions, developing a reputation for creating fine frames. Royal Art passed through the family and eventually evolved into Sulis, now run by Benjamin's grandson Bill, and his son Dan. Based in the South West of England, we source art from across the British Isles and ship worldwide. We handpick all our stock and we've grown into a ten-strong team of art historians, photographers, restorers, studio technicians and despatchers. We relocated to our Corsham studio in early 2020, leaving behind our small garden workshops in Bradford-on-Avon that had been our base for several successful years. Now located on the edge of the Cotswolds, our current home allows the team to work alongside our large catalogue of artworks, allowing us to provide you with fast global shipping and top-notch customer service. We are always striving to connect people with the art they love. Each week we add new artworks to our extensive catalogue, across all styles, subjects, colours and periods. At the heart of Sulis, we rescue and restore lost and forgotten works, giving you the opportunity to find unique pieces and discover art in a new and different way. View All Artworks View More -->
