Anthony Green (30 September 1939 – 14 February 2023) was an English realist painter and printmaker best known for his paintings of his own middle-class domestic life. His works sometimes used compound perspectives and polygonal forms—particularly with large, irregularly shaped canvasses. As well as producing oil paintings, he also produced a number of works designed from the start as limited edition prints, which are typically giclée works. Early Years Anthony Green was born on 30 September 1939 in Luton, Bedfordshire, and educated at Highgate School, London (where he was taught by Kyffin Williams) and the Slade School of Art (from 1956). Green was interviewed for his place at the Slade by William Coldstream. It was there where he first met lifelong friend and fellow RA Ben Levene, and in 1957 where he met his future wife Mary Cozens-Walker. In 1960 he moved to Paris and Châteauroux on a scholarship from the Government of France. He returned to England in 1961 and married Cozens-Walker, with whom he had two daughters, Kate and Lucy. His first one-man exhibition was held at the Rowan Gallery in 1962. He taught at the Slade from 1964 until 1967 when he received a Harkness Fellowship and spent two years living in Leonia, New Jersey and Altadena, California. Royal Academy of Arts Green's professional life was intertwined with the Royal Academy for more than 50 years. He was elected an Associate Member on 23 April 1971, was elected a full Member on 1 March 1977 and won the Royal Academy Summer Exhibit of the Year in 1977. A retrospective of his work was held at the Royal Academy in 1978. In 2000, Green was appointed as a Trustee of the Royal Academy. In 2003 he was a featured artist at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. He was elected a Senior RA in 2014, and in 2017 there was an exhibition of his works entitled 'The Life and Death of Miss Dupont' which was held in the Tennant Gallery at the Royal Academy. Green twice stood as a candidate for President of the Royal Academy, in 1999 (beaten by the sculptor Phillip King) and 2004 (beaten by the architect Nicholas Grimshaw).
