Edwin Longsden Long RA (1829 - 1891) a British painter

He was born in Bath and died of pneumonia. He was an orientalist, depicting Biblical and Middle Eastern subjects with astute accuracy, and a romanticist. In 1854, under the advice of the artist John Phillip, he travelled abroad to Spain, and later to Egypt and Syria. This inspired him to create his more lucrative paintings, such as The Babylonian Marriage Market.
