The second son of Sir William Bunbury, 5th Baronet of Mildenhall, Suffolk, he came from an old Norman family. He was educated at Westminster School and St Catharine's College, Cambridge, and soon showed a talent for drawing, especially for humorous subjects. His more serious efforts were no great success, but his caricatures are as famous as those of his contemporaries Thomas Rowlandson and James Gillray, good examples being his Country Club (1788), Barber's Shop (1803) and A Long Story (1782). He was a popular character, and the friend of most of the notabilities of his day, whom he never offended by attempting political satire; his easy circumstances and social position (he was colonel of the West Suffolk Militia, and was appointed equerry to the Duke of York and Albany in 1787) allowed him leisure to practise his talents. His son Henry succeeded to the baronetcy. Our reference: 06609a Please feel free to email or call us (+44 20 8809 9605) to arrange a viewing in our North London warehouse.
