Articles From The Experts – Mary Moser, R.A. The Forgotten Founding Artist of the Royal Academy

In this episode, Old Masters specialist, David Dallas shines a spotlight on the life and work of Mary Moser, a groundbreaking yet often forgotten artist from the 18th century. As one of the first women admitted to the Royal Academy, Mary Moser faced significant barriers due to gender norms. Despite this, she excelled as a flower painter, and at the pinnacle of her career she was awarded a prestigious commission from Queen Charlotte to decorate Frogmore House, where her floral designs remain today. As an accomplished but often overlooked artist, her works are both historically significant and undervalued, making them potentially accessible for those seeking rare and meaningful art.
