New Associates of the Royal Academy: Mr. G. A. Storey, A.R.A., 1876. Engraving from photographs by Messrs. Fradelle and Marshall, of Regent-street. '...Mr. Storey's early life was that common to almost all artists - the natural bent early shown, perseverance despite coldness or more active opposition, and ultimate triumph. At nine years of age he was modelling in the studio of the late Mr. Behnes; about thirteen he received a silver palette at school for the best oil picture; at fourteen he made copies in the Louvre; at sixteen he entered a London architect's office, whence he soon transferred himself to Mr. Leigh's academy in Newman-street, and thence to the Royal Academy Schools...Mr. Storey's early-exhibited pictures are varied and undecided in aim, and as late as 1883 he was painting Spanish grandees at Madrid'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
