The date of Paul Sandby's birth has not been handed down, the only certainty is that he was baptised in Nottingham in 1731. 1745 he moved to London and followed his brother Thomas (1721 - 1798) into the military drawing department in the Tower of London. After the rebellion of the Jacobites (followers of the Stuart royal line) in 1745, Sandby assisted in the military surveying of the new road to Fort George and the north and west of the Highlands. He was even promoted to chief draughtsman of the undertaking. During the six years he worked on the survey, Sandby also began to paint his first pictures with watercolours of bridges, fortifications and the Scottish landscape.
After leaving his post with the survey team, Sandby spent time with his brother, who had been appointed Deputy Ranger of Windsor Great Park. Sandby painted pictures of Windsor - castle, town, landscape. The works of that time made him a much sought-after artist, who was praised by Thomas Gainsborough (1727 - 1788) as the best landscape painter of his time.
Sandby also made numerous etchings of his own works and those of other artists. The immense range of Sandby's work also includes caricatures, which he published anonymously in 1753/54 and sporadically under his own name from 1762 onwards. In 1760 Sandby also exhibited for the first time at the Society of Artists, which he repeated regularly over the next eight years until 1768, when the Royal Academy was founded by Sandby and 27 other artists. In the years that followed, Sandby repeatedly made excursions to Wales and produced further paintings of the country and its people.
