1700 – 1765

English painter. He was a pupil of Warner Hassels (active 1680-1710), a portrait painter in Godfrey Kneller 's circle, but Lambert's earliest dated painting, Classical Landscape with Two Figures (1723; private collection), already shows the influence of the landscape painter John Wootton. From 1726 he worked in London as a scene painter at Lincoln's Inn Fields Theatre; he followed the impresario John Rich to Covent Garden Theatre in 1732 and continued to work there until his death.Show more
