          Ford Madox Brown (16 April 1821 – 6 October 1893) was a British painter of moral and historical subjects, notable for his distinctively graphic and often Hogarthian version of the Pre-Raphaelite style.

          Arguably, his most notable painting was Work (1852–1865).

          Early life

          Brown was the grandson of the medical theorist John Brown, founder of the Brunonian system of medicine.

          His great-grandfather was a Scottish labourer. His father Ford Brown served as a purser in the Royal Navy, including a period serving under Sir Isaac Coffin and a period on HMS Arethusa. He left the Navy after the end of the Napoleonic Wars.

          In 1818, Ford Brown married Caroline Madox, of an old Kentish family.[1
