Biography

Wood was born in Maindee, a suburb of Newport, South Wales the son of a cement manufacturer. He was a hugely popular contributor to magazines in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and is chiefly remembered for his depictions of the wild west which graced many a boy's story papers. It was the perfect match of subject and talent as Wood was superb at depicting horses in action. He spent some of his teen years, with his family in Kansas, USA and he returned to America in 1888 when he was sent to South Dakota by the Illustrated London News. His wild-west depictions were reproduced in Boy's Own Paper and Chums. Other works also appeared in Black and White, Cassell's Magazine, The Graphic, The Idler, London Magazine, Pall Mall Magazine, Pearson’s Magazine, Strand Magazine and many others. He also exhibited at the Walker Art Gallery, Manchester Academy of Fine Arts, Royal Academy of Arts and Royal Institute of Oil Painters. Paintings by Wood are in Gallery Oldham, Maidstone Museum and Bentlif Art Gallery, NAM and the Tank Museum.

About Sulis Fine Art

Sulis Fine Art traces its origins back four generations. Benjamin Diamond opened a picture framing factory in Midtown Manhattan in the early 20th century. Originally known as Royal Art, the business worked closely with artists and museum institutions, developing a reputation for creating fine frames. Royal Art passed through the family and eventually evolved into Sulis, now run by Benjamin's grandson Bill, and his son Dan.

Based in the South West of England, we source art from across the British Isles and ship worldwide. We handpick all our stock and we've grown into a ten-strong team of art historians, photographers, restorers, studio technicians and despatchers.

We relocated to our Corsham studio in early 2020, leaving behind our small garden workshops in Bradford-on-Avon that had been our base for several successful years. Now located on the edge of the Cotswolds, our current home allows the team to work alongside our large catalogue of artworks, allowing us to provide you with fast global shipping and top-notch customer service. We are always striving to connect people with the art they love.

Each week we add new artworks to our extensive catalogue, across all styles, subjects, colours and periods. At the heart of Sulis, we rescue and restore lost and forgotten works, giving you the opportunity to find unique pieces and discover art in a new and different way.
