Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Francis Edgar Dodd RA was a notable British portrait and landscape artist and printmaker. Born in Holyhead, north Wales, the son of a Wesleyan minister, Dodd trained at the Glasgow School of Art, winning the Haldene Scholarship in 1893 and travelling around France, Italy and later Spain. He settled in Manchester, becoming friends with Charles Holden, before moving to London. During the World War I, in 1916, he was appointed an official war artist by Charles Masterman, the head of the War Propaganda Bureau. Serving on the Western Front, he produced more than 30 portraits of senior military figures. However, he also earned a considerable peace-time reputation for the quality of his water-colours and portrait commissions. He was appointed a trustee of the Tate Gallery in 1929 and was elected to the Royal Academy in 1935. He lived from 1911 until taking his own life in 1949 in Arundel House in Blackheath, London SE3
