Dudley Hardy, RI, ROI, RBA, RMS, PS, (b. Sheffield, Yorkshire, 15 January 1867 – d. London, 11 August 1922), was an English painter and illustrator. Hardy was the eldest son of the marine painter Thomas Bush Hardy,〔(Thomas Bush Hardy ) ''Vallejo Gallery''; retrieved 17 April 2011〕 under whose influence and tutelage he first learned to draw and paint. In 1882 he attended the Düsseldorf Academy where he remained for three years. After a further two years' study in Paris and at Antwerp Academy he returned to England to live and work in London.〔(Dudley Hardy (1867–1922) ) ''Invaluable.com''; retrieved 17 April 2011〕〔(Dudley Hardy ) ''Lynda Cotton Gallery''; retrieved 17 April 2011〕 In 1885 Hardy began exhibiting at the Royal Academy, an association that lasted to his death. His painting, ''Sans Asile'' (1889), a view of rough sleepers in Trafalgar Square, was exhibited at the Paris Salon,〔''Current opinion, Volume 17'', p. 219; Current Literature Pub. Co, 1895; retrieved 17 April 2011〕 and the Royal Society of British Artists Gallery in 1893; it was this painting that established his reputation. ''Sans Asile'' and his 1889 painting ''Dock Strike''〔(''Dock Strike'' ) ''Getty images'' (2008); retrieved 17 April 2011〕 (London Dock Strike), were part of a wider artistic and statistical examination highlighting London poverty.〔Borzello, Frances (1987); (''Civilizing Caliban: Misuse of Art, 1875–1980'' ) – p. 22; Camden Press ISBN 0-7102-0675-5; retrieved 18 April 2011〕 The preferred subjects for his work became the Middle East and Brittany; painting scenes of desert life and Breton peasantry. Although not visiting the Sudan he became a 'War Artist' for the 1890s Sudanese War, providing illustrations for London periodicals. His interest in illustration led to the production of French graphic influenced poster imagery, most notably the ''Yellow Girl'' advertisement for ''Today'' magazine, and ''Gaiety Girls'',〔(Society – Women and the family ) ''Victoria and Albert Museum'' "Victorian Vision" exhibition; V&A Publications; retrieved 18 April 2011〕 a series of posters depicting actresses of the Gaiety Theatre. Further illustrations were for the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company and the Savoy Theatre.〔( Mr. Dudley Hardy’s Savoy Posters ) ''The Poster''; retrieved 17 April 2011〕 Much of Hardy's illustrative work is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.〔〔〔(Poster for D'Oyly Carte Opera Company's 'Yeoman of the Guard' ) ''Victoria and Albert Museum'' collections; retrieved 18 April 2011〕 In the early 1900s he produced a range of comical postcards,〔(Dudley Hardy Postcard Artist ) ''About Postcards''; retrieved 17 April 2011〕 and in 1909 a series of caricatures for the souvenir programme of the ''Doncaster Aviation Meeting'', England's first airshow.〔(Dudley Hardy: "Doncaster Aviation Meeting Souvenir Programme" ) ''Science and Society Picture Library''; retrieved 18 April 2011〕 Hardy joined his friend George Haité as a founder member of the London Sketch Club; and became the club's president.〔 He later joined the Eccentric Club. Dudley Hardy died of heart failure in 1922, and was buried at Woking in Surrey.〔Clarke, John M.; ''London's Necropolis, A Guide to Brookwood Cemetery'', Sutton Publishing, Stroud, Gloucestershire, 2004〕 ==Publications== *Greenwall, Ryno (1994); ''Artists and Illustrators of the Anglo-Boer War'' – p. 142; Fernwood Press ISBN 0-9583154-2-6; retrieved April 2011 *Johnson, Alfred Edwin (1909); ''Dudley Hardy: R.I., R.M.S (Brush, pen & pencil series)'' – 56 work examples; A. and C.
