Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Hayward (family) : Caroline (Bartlett) Hayward (act. 1845/46) was the wife of Captain Alfred Hayward. They lived at Ravenscroft between Port Hope and Cobourg and also near Rice Lake, Ontario. She was an artist who is known for her drawings, and prints after her sketches of Rice Lake. She also wrote and published poetry. Two sons, Gerald Sinclair Hayward (1845-1926) and Alfred Frederick William Hayward (1856-1939) were also artists born in Port Hope, Ontario. Her son Gerald Hayward was occupied in railroading and farming during his youth; served with the 10th Royals in the Fenian Raids in 1866; studied painting in England in 1870 where he painted principally as a miniaturist; he married Sophia Cawley, of Jersey; and later lived in New York and Boston with a summer home at Gore's Landing in Ontario 1904-08, where he died in 1926. He also painted watercolours in the Rice Lake district. He exhibited at the Royal Academy in London, and the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh.The exhibition of his miniatures in New York in 1889 is said to have revived interest in the art in the United States. He painted portraits of English royalty and aristocracy and important statesmen in the United States and Canada. His brother Alfred Frederick William emigrated to England in 1875 and remained there except for trips to Canada coinciding with exhibitions. He painted portraits and later flower studies and still lifes and interiors. His wife Edith (active 1866-1929) was also an artist who painted watercolours in the Rice Lake area.

Custodial history:

The bulk of the collection (36 items including watercolours, drawings, prints, reproductions, and photographs, works by several artists) is from the 1975 accession acquired from Frank R. Williams Sr. who obtained the collection from the estate of G.S. Hayward. A print by Caroline Hayward and one miniature by Gerald Sinclair Hayward were acquired from art dealers. One miniature by G.S. Hayward was acquired from an unknown source, possibly directly from the artist himself, but was painted by the artist to illustrate Arthur Doughty's book entitled "Daughter of New France" published in 1916.
