Francis John Wyburd is a name I share with my great great grandfather. He was a Victorian painter of some modest renown whose works still manage to command both collectors' interest and their cash, even today. As a result, his work has become scattered around the world oer the past century and is to be found in museums and private collections from the US to Australia and who knows where else.
My family does not seem to have a record of his work (although various members of the family have some of his pieces), so I wondered whether the internet age would help me bulld up a comprehensive record of my own.
This blog details my progress in tracking down his pictures.
