Edward John Poynter, a renowned artist born on the Ides of March in 1836, left an indelible mark on the world of art. His creative genius shines through his various works, each capturing a unique perspective and showcasing his immense talent. In 1883, Edward John Poynter mesmerized audiences with his masterpiece - a perspective view of the Great Clock of the Royal Exchange. The intricate details and precision displayed in this artwork leave viewers awe-struck, marveling at Poynter's ability to bring life to even the most mundane objects. Poynter himself was no stranger to being captured on canvas. In 1877, Alphonse Legros immortalized him in a portrait that perfectly encapsulates his dignified presence and artistic spirit. This depiction serves as a testament to Poynter's significant contributions to the art world. During the 1860s, John & Charles Watkins skillfully photographed Edward John Poynter, preserving moments from his life for future generations to admire. These photographs provide glimpses into both his personal and professional life, offering insight into the man behind the masterpieces. Poynter's creativity extended beyond traditional paintings; he also dabbled in decorative wall tiles during the c1860s. One such example is "January, " an exquisite tile design by J M Benson from 1881. Its intricate patterns and vibrant colors showcase Poynter's versatility as an artist. Bernard Collier brought one of Poynter's designs for a mosaic titled "Apelles" to life in 1881. This stunning creation demonstrates not only Collier's craftsmanship but also highlights how artists like Poynter pushed boundaries by exploring different mediums. The East Dining or Grill Room depicted in another work from c1860s showcases yet another facet Poyer’s talents – interior design.
