George Barret II

George Barret the Younger was a British painter, master watercolorist and landscape painter.

He was the son of the Irish painter George Barret the Elder (1730-1784) and learned painting from his father. He exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1800 and was one of the first and active members of the Society of Watercolor Painters, which was formed with his own encouragement in 1804. His early works were mainly topographical landscapes in a style similar to his father's watercolors. Later he switched to more romantic compositions with imaginary landscapes.

In 1840, George Barret published The Theory and Practice of Watercolor Painting.
