GREGORY (1850-19o9)  , British painter, born at Southampton, began work at the age of fifteen in the engineer's drawing office of the Peninsular and Oriental Company . Afterwards he studied at South Kensington, and about 1871 entered on a successful career as an illustrator and as an admirable painter in oil and water colour . He was elected associate of the Royal Academy in 1883, academician in 1898, and president of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours in 1898 . His work is distinguished by remarkable technical qualities, by exceptional firmness and decision of draughtsmanship and by unusual certainty of handling . His " Marooned," a water colour, is in the National Gallery of British Art . Many of his pictures were shown at Burlington House at the winter exhibition of 1909—1910 after his death in June 1909 .
