 English school of painting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The English school of painting is an expression for English (or British) painters who produced characteristically English paintings.
Generally, the term "school" is used to designate a special collection of traditions and processes, a particular method, a peculiar style in design, and an equally peculiar taste in colouring - all contributing to the representation of a national ideal existing in the minds of native artists at the same time.
Many scholars say there was no English school of painting before the 18th century, as the most important painters who worked in England came from abroad and English art lovers only liked paintings of foreign old masters.

 Norwich school - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Norwich school of painters were the first provincial art movement in Britain that began in 1803.
A major factor why the Norwich School are not as well known as other painters of the period, notably Constable and Turner is primarily because the majority of their canvases were collected by the industrialist Jeremiah Colman and have been on permanent display in Norwich Castle museum since the 1880's.
The Norwich school's great achievement was that a small group of self-taught working class artists were able to paint with vitality the surrounding hinterland around Norwich, albeit with meagre local patronage.

 William Hogarth
William Hogarth was a British painter and engraver, noted for his observation of English manners and customs and for his satirization of the excesses of his age.
He was the dominant artistic personality in England in the first half of the 18th century and the painter who did most to establish a distinctive English school of painting.
Hogarth’s remarkably exuberant satire of a marriage entered into for money, his pungent observation of upper-class life, and his mastery of complex scenes find perhaps their highest expression in his paintings of upper-class life, generally considered to be his finest works.

 Epilogue
The iconography of Pre-Raphaelite painting long puzzled the native critics as well, and not only when the painter's allusions were intensely personal.
According to family tradition, Edith bears some of her sister's possessions, and although Hunt did not marry her for many years, he already seems to have seen his first wife in a prefigurative relation to his second.
Of course, what is at issue here is not Chesneau's various interpretations of the painting -- all of which, incidentally, Hunt denied (See Landow, "'As unreserved as a studio chat.'") -- but the way this sympathetic and often ingenious critic found himself unsure how to approach a work he took to be characteristic of Pre-Raphaelitism.

If one compares the scale of dimensions in any photograph of a gathering of people perhaps even a congress of philosophers with Raphael's School of Athens, one finds that the photograph shows a crowd of indeterminate beings in an equally indeterminate setting.
Raphael's fresco, on the other hand, in spite of its great number of figures, at once gives the feeling of something constructed, and the longer one looks at it the stronger the feeling becomes.
