Biographies

John Dilworth

LOTT, George Frederick Born 1801, died 1869 London UK. Eldest son of John Frederick Lott (I), below. Worked for R. Davis in Coventry Street until 1844, subsequently establishing his own business at 15 Gerrard Street. Over the following years he moved regularly: to 23 Princes Street 1845, 16 Princes Street 1847, 65 Wardour Street 1848, 36 Princes Street 1853, Wardour Street 1855, and finally 3 Pitt Street, Tottenham Court Road in his last year, 1869. Work is mostly anonymous copies of Italian masters, made for the trade and rarely labelled by himself. Fine work but lacking the inspiration of that of his younger brother John. [BVMA]
