Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KNIGHT, JOHN BUXTON (18431908) ,
English
  landscape painter, was born at Sevenoaks, Kent; he started as a school-master, but
painting
  was his
hobby
 , and he subsequently de-voted himself to it. In 1861 he had his first picture hung at the
Academy
 . He was essentially an open-air painter, constantly going on sketching tours in the most picturesque spots of England, and all his pictures were painted out of doors. He died at Dover on the 2nd of January 1908. The Chantrey trustees bought his " December's Bareness Everywhere " for the nation in the following month. Most of his best pictures had passed into the collection of Mr Iceton of Putney (including "
White
  Walls of Old England " and "
Hereford
 
Cathedral
  "), Mr Walter
Briggs
  of Burley in Wharfedale (especially " Pinner "), and Mr S. M. Phillips of Wrotham (especially two water-colours of Richmond
Bridge
 ).
