The late W. Hunt, water-colour painter, 1864. Engraving from a photograph by John and Charles Watkins. By the death of William Henry Hunt, at the goodly age of seventy-four, the (Old) Society of Painters in Water Colours, and, let us hasten to add, the whole English school of painting and a large section of the public, sustains the loss of an artist of great originality, and some of whose powers were, we firmly believe, unparalleled. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
