Bertram Walter Priestman RA, ROI, RBA was born in Bradford, Yorkshire in 1868 and died in Crowborough, Sussex, England on March19, 1951. Priestman studied under Edwin Moore, Arnesby Brown and at the Slade School of Art. He was studio assistant to Sir William Llewellyn, PRA., and he had a house and garden studio in Walberswick 1914 - 1927, where he tutored pupils including Edward Seago.He traveled extensively in Europe and the United States and exhibited regularly at The Royal Academy, Goupil Gallery, ROI, Walker Art Gallery and widely elsewhere. He was elected to the American Royal Academy as a painter on April 20th, 1916, elected to the Royal Academy on June 26, 1923, and elected a Senior Royal Academician on Jan 1, 1944.
He won a series of international medals. Many galleries in Britain, including Liverpool, Bristol, Birmingham and Manchester and a large number of overseas holdings hold examples of his work.Worchester City Museum holds the oil on canvas painting entitled Clouds over the Orwell.

Regarding Mr. Bertram Priestman's family, not much material seems available.
Bryan Priestman was his only son. Margaret Hunter, who knew the family, wrote that Priestman also "had at least one daughter, namely Barbara Priestman, who was born in or shortly after 1900. She was already headmistress of the Froebel School in Barons Court (the demonstration school for the Froebel training college in Roehampton) when I started there (in its nursery class) in 1934. She remained in that post throughout the War and afterwards, until she retired. She died in the late 1970's as far as I can recall. She was a remarkable woman - but that's another story!"In 1929, Priestman was appointed Head of the Department of Physics at University of New Brunswick, a position which he held for twelve years. After his discharge in September 1945, he returned to the position of Head of the Department of Physics at UNB. On November 11, 1945, Bryan Priestman died in an attempt to rescue a drowning boy from the St. Johns River.
