Artist Biography:
Haden\'s printmaking was invigorated by his much younger brother-in-law, James Whistler, at the Haden home in Sloane Street in 1855. A press was installed there and for a while Haden and Whistler collaborated on a series of etchings of the Thames. The relationship and project did not last. The Island Opposite Boyle\'s Farm, Upper Thames. Haden followed the art of original etching with such vigor that he became not only the foremost British exponent of that art but brought about its revival in England. His strenuous efforts and perseverance, aided by the secretarial ability of Sir WR. Drake, resulted in the foundation of the Royal Society of Painter-Etchers and Engravers. As president he ruled the society with a strong hand from its first beginnings in 1880. Haden\'s own plates were very individual. He preferred to work directly onto the plate in front of the subject.Malcolm Salaman wrote of Haden drawing from nature \"with that breadth, freedom, and spontaneity of effect, which, while suggesting a sketch, represented a true etcher\'s drawing\". Even when working from a picture by another artist his personality dominates the plate, as for example in the large plate he etched after J.M.W. Turner\'s Calais Pier, which is a classical example of what interpretative work can do in black and white. Of his original plates, more than 250 in number, one of the most notable was the large Breaking up of the Agamemnon.
