Joseph Wright of Derby (b.1734 d.1797) was an English painter who made a name for himself as a successful portraitist in the Midlands. In the 1760s he utilised tenebrism, painting various candle lit scenes. This is illustrated in his most famous work An Experiment on a Bird in the Air Pump (1768). This work was described by Sir Ellis Waterhouse as ‘one of the wholly original masterpieces of British art’.
