Victorian Artist
 
Daivid Payne was born in Annan in the old county of Dumfriesshire, 
the son of a Mason. He was educated at Annan Academy
 (along with fellow artist William Ewart Lockhart).
He initially made his living as a house painter before becoming an artist. 
Payne moved to Derby in 1869 and was recorded as living at several
places in the county of Derbyshire in the 1880s including 
Duffield and Barrow upon Trent. Payne was a student of George Turner 
"Derbyshire's John Constable") who also lived in Barrow upon Trent.
 Payne's carving of two anglers won the 1882 Derby Art Gallery medal 
for industrial
art and the sculpture and medal have now been repurchased by the gallery.
Payne became a rural landscape and trompe-l'œil artist. 
He exhibited at the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists (R BSA), 
the Nottingham Museum and Art Gallery, and was a member of the 
Royal Scottish Academy (RSA). He is regarded as one of the best of the 
19th-century 
Birmingham artists. In 1891, Queen Victoria visited Derby to lay the
foundation stone of the Derbyshire Royal Infirmary and to knight 
Sir Alfred Haslam. 
The scene in the market place where hundreds of people, soldiers, horses
and bunting turned out to meet Queen Victoria was captured by Payne. 
This painting is now in Derby Museum and Art Gallery, but he also has work 
in his home town.
Payne married and had 14 children. He died in Sheffield in 1894. Today Payne
has paintings in several British institutions including Derby Museum, 
the Defence Academy and Southampton City Art Gallery.
