He studied under Fred Brown and spent some time in Paris. He also painted, drew pencil portraits, did watercolours, used chalk and pastel, and produced etchings. He became one of the most consistent of magazine illustrators, maintaining a high standard and preferring a Georgian setting for his works. He succumbed to lung cancer on 23 August 1937. The son of Alfred Pegram, a cabinet maker, Frederick, enrolled at the Westminster School of Art at age 15. Some of his fellow students were Henry Tonks, Aubrey Beardsley and Maurice Greiffenhagen. Pegram served as Special Constable at Buckingham Palace during World War I. Pegram's draughtsmanship was widely acclaimed and he produced the artwork for Mackintosh's Toffee advertisements, Player's, Ronuk Wax Polish, Selfridges, and some versions of the iconic Kodak Girl. Between 1889 and 1904 he exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy, and in 1925 was elected a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours, where he was a frequent exhibitors. He also designed posters for the Underground Group. In 1918 he moved into one of 15 artist's studios that were known as 'The Avenue' and located at 76 Fulham Road. "One of the most enjoyable experiences I have had was under the hospitable roof of Mr. Hall Caine, when I went to make the sketches for 'The Manxman' illustrations, which appeared in 'The Queen', in which paper the novel was first published. The popular novelist is a host par excellence, and I had a very good time." — Fred Pegram The sculptor and medallist Alfred Bertram Pegram (17 January 1873 – 14 January 1941) was one of Frederick's younger brothers. Frederick and Alfred were cousins to the four brock brothers, all illustrators, who worked together in their studio in Cambridge. Frederick, Alfred, and the Brock brothers were all first cousins to the sculptor Henry Alfred Pegram RA (27 July 1862 – 25 March 1937). (en) |
