   Extractions: Whilst researching the second generation of Pre-Raphaelites for this site, the name Charles Fairfax Murray has frequently been mentioned, and of course, he was a studio assistant to Edward Burne-Jones in the late 1860s. He was also known to supply painted backgrounds to Rossetti. Murray was a short, bustling, rather assertive individual. He had a real talent for producing portrait drawings of his friends. His output of pictures was very small, as it would seem he lacked confidence in his own artistic ability. In the 19th century Old Master drawings were very cheap, and Murray amassed a vast collection of them. The large part of these were bought en masse by J Pierpont Morgan (1837-1913), the American financier and banking magnate. Murray, due to his lack of confidence, became mainly known for his activities as a dealer and collector with excellent taste. He was a generous benefactor to the National Gallery and Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.

   Extractions: Foreword by John Christian This long-awaited biography of Charles Fairfax Murray, the least known of all the Pre-Raphaelites, will reveal that he was a painter, dealer, connoisseur, collector and benefactor, as well as the friend of William Morris, of the Rossettis, friend and studio assistant to Edward Burne-Jones, and protege of John Ruskin. Murray made himself invaluable to his masters. He was the great enabler, the indispensable second fiddle for Rossetti and Burne-Jones as well as the trusted adjutant to Morris. Whether painting stained glass windows or adding miniatures to Morris’s illuminated manuscripts or being Ruskin’s “heaven-born copyist,” Murray was ideally suited to these tasks and more. An excessively secret man in both his private and professional life, he deliberately courted anonymity. Perhaps why he left no memoir and that his dairies reveal little about himself was because Murray had a “dark secret.” After Murray moved out of the shadow of the Pre-Raphaelite heavyweights, his sphere of activity expanded to embrace collecting, dealing, museology and art-historical scholarship. Author and blood-relative grandson of Murray, David Elliot offers an incredible insight into Murray’s world by having access to papers on both sides of the family and diligently researching treasured archives in Britain, Europe and America.

   Extractions: Charles Fairfax Murray; Copy of Botticelli 'Nativity', Ruskin Gallery, Sheffield Introduction Charles Fairfax Murray (1849-919) was a man of widely acknowledged importance in the late 19th century art world. If his significance is less generally recognised today, an age of specialisations, it is in part because of the sheer range of his activities as artist, collector, dealer and bibliophile, but above all because he had a passion for anonymity equalled only by his passion for art. A substantial painter and portraitist in his own right, Fairfax Murray - the studio assistant to Edward Burne-Jones, the designer and glass painter for William Morris, the friend and assistant to Dante Gabriel Rossetti, the copyist for John Ruskin is a name known to numbers of people with an interest in the Victorian art world and the Pre-Raphaelites in particular. Few are, however, aware of the breadth of his interests and expertise, and little is known of his personal history. His contribution to the Pre-Raphaelites' place in the history of art in England can scarcely have been exceeded since he made it his business to bring together every scrap of correspondence, every sketch, every piece of information that came his way concerning the second "PRB". By his association with Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Ford Madox Brown, George Price Boyce, Charles Augustus Howell and William Michael Rossetti among many others - notably John Ruskin - he was steeped in the history of the original Brotherhood. Fairfax Murray was on terms with virtually any name of the time one cares to mention; Frederick Sandys, John Nettleship, F S Ellis, J R Spencer Stanhope, G F Watts, Edward Hughes, the Prinseps, the Ionides, Mary Zambaco, Marie Spartali Stillman, A C Swinburne, Philip Webb, Arthur Mackmurdo, Walter Crane, Frederic Leighton and Sir W B Richmond among them.

   Extractions: (Ruskin Library, Lancaster University) Life Charles Fairfax Murray was born in Bow, then a country village on the eastern fringes of London, on 30 September 1849. His father was the linen-draper in this prospering community. Fairfax Murray was only four years of age when his mother died, and he spent much of his early childhood in the Suffolk town of Sudbury; little is known of this period, but it is certain that by the time he returned to London at the age of 12 or 13 his was already an accomplished if immature artist. The influence of Thomas Gainsborough remained strong in Sudbury, and it is possible that Fairfax Murray received early lessons from Richard Gainsborough Dupont. By 1864 or '65 Fairfax Murray was employed as a shopboy or apprentice in the drawing office of the great Victorian railway builder, Sir Samuel Morton Peto who commissioned a number of portraits of his family from the young artist. In 1866 Fairfax Murray sent a parcel of his drawings to John Ruskin who generously paid for his lodging and training that year, and on his 17th birthday arranged for his joining Edward Burne-Jones, another Ruskin protege, as his first studio assistant. In addition to bringing a number of important works in to national collections, Fairfax Murray played an important part in developing the great American collections. He was first advisor and later a partner with Agnew's; Lockett Agnew described him simply as 'the finest judge of art in the world.' It is the more unfortunate he left almost nothing in writing of the opinions which his contemporaries regarded with such respect. In 1894, the last year of Gladstone's administration, Charles Fairfax Murray entered the contest for the Directorship of the National Gallery, losing to an old adversary, Edward Poynter, Burne-Jones's brother-in-law. He was, however, at the peak of his influence in the art market, not simply as a dealer but as expert advisor to numerous private and public collections in Europe and the United States, a position he enjoyed until well in to the next decade.
