John William Waterhouse was born in Rome, and was always known by his
family, and personal friends as Nino, the diminutive of the Italian
Giovanino. Both his parents were painters. Today Waterhouse is possibly
the most popular of all the painters on this web site. It is interesting
to note, however, that little is known about his personal life today,
considering he died in 1917, and was an active RA. What is known
indicates he was a retiring, shy man, he left no diaries or journals,
and, I suspect, quite deliberately covered his tracks. His friend,
William Logsdail [1859-1944] wrote his memoirs, but I have not been able
to locate a copy of them. I set out below such information I as I have
about Waterhouse.
