Life


He was born in a family of artists. His father Archibald Webb and his brother Byron Webb were also noted painters. He exhibited in London at the Royal Academy and the British Institute between 1850 and 1888, and many of his works still hang in London in the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Tate Gallery.
