George Loraine Stampa (29 November 1875 – 26 May 1951), also known as G. L. Stampa, was a British artist.[1][2][3] He contributed to Punch for over 50 years and was the illustrator for books written by A. P. Herbert, E. V. Lucas and Anthony Armstrong.[1][4] He contributed to most of the illustrated weeklies, including The Bystander, The Humorist, The Sketch and The Tatler.[5] Stampa exhibited at the Royal Institute of Painters and the Royal Academy,[6] and was a participant in the art competition at the 1928 Summer Olympics.[7]

Early life

George Loraine Stampa was born Giorgio Stampa in Istanbul on 29 November 1875, the son of Giorgio Domenico Stampa and Ann (née Heelis) who was the daughter of the Rector of Long Marton in England.[8][6][9] Stampa's father, Giorgio Domenico Stampa, was also born in Istanbul but educated in Westmorland, England, under the Rev. William Shepherd at Long Marton,[10] later joining the architectural practice of Edward Walters in Manchester where he worked on the design of the Manchester Free Trade Hall and other projects in that City.[8]

Stampa's father was later architect to Sultan Abdul Hamid in the Ottoman Empire where he worked on the design of The British Embassy at Therapia, The Sultan's Palace in Istanbul, the palace of the Kedhive of Egypt and a number of Mosques.[8][10]

Stampa's father had to leave the Ottoman Empire in 1878 following a political uprising and the young Stampa then lived in England with his mother's family at Battlebarrow House in Appleby, Westmorland.[11][8] In Westmorland, he enjoyed fishing with his maternal cousin, Willy Heelis, and the landscape of Westmorland had a profound effect on him and his future career as an artist.[12] Stampa's father became a British citizen in 1889, as did his children.[8][13]

George Loraine Stampa was educated at Appleby Grammar School (where the father of George Washington was educated),[12] Bedford Modern School,[14][15][16] Heatherly's Art School (1892–93), and, as a contemporary of Heath Robinson and Lewis Baumer,[13] the Royal Academy Schools (1893–95).[1][6] Stampa spoke Italian, French, Turkish and English.[8]

Stampa family history

Gaspara Stampa

Stampa's family had an illustrious history.[17] In the 8th century, his ancestor, Carlo Lanfranco D'Estampes, was seigneur of Dreux and Étampes in France.[17] Carlo D'Estampes was made Governor of Milan by Charlemagne on the order that D'Estampes fight for control of Lombardy on behalf of the Holy Roman Empire.[17] Carlo Lanfranco D'Estampes later established his family in Milan, Italianized his name to Stampa, and many of his descendants became successful in the Byzantine Empire.[17]

The Aegean Island of Stampalia, renamed Astypalaia after World War II, was colonised by the family in the 14th century.[17] At one point, the Stampa family also owned the island of Elba where Napoleon was first exiled in 1814.[18]

One of Stampa's ancestors, Gaspara Stampa (1520-1554), was an esteemed poet during the Italian Renaissance.[17]

Stampa's work

Stampa first published in Punch in March 1894, at the request of F. C. Burnand, when the nineteen year old Stampa was still studying at Heatherley's Art School.[12] Stampa's predilection for drawing London street urchins and mongrel dogs was in the same style as Charles Keene and Phil May.[13] He was a major contributor to Punch for 50 years, providing material to four editors including Sir Francis Burnand, Sir Owen Seaman, Mr. E. V. Knox and Mr Kenneth Bird.[2] At the time of his last contribution in 1949, Stampa had contributed at least 2,500 drawings to Punch.[4]

In addition to Punch, Stampa was an illustrator for most of the illustrated weeklies, including The Bystander, The Humorist, The Sketch and The Tatler.[5] He was an illustrator for all of Rudyard Kipling's dog stories.[6] Stampa was also a designer of posters for London Transport,[19] and illustrator to the Punch theatre column, "At the Play", signing some of his work as Harris Brooks.[20] Ronald Searle took responsibility for the theatre column in 1949.[13]

Stampa would regularly donate his drawings to charities including the Great Ormond Street Hospital, Middlesex Hospital, the Newspaper Press charities and the Rudyard Kipling Memorial Fund.[4] He also contributed work after the explosion of the French battleship Liberté in Toulon.[4] Stampa was commissioned to paint a cartoon, the size of a postage stamp, for Queen Mary's famous dolls' house.[4] In 1916 he designed a card for the 19th (Western) Division of the British Expeditionary Force during World War I.[4] His illustrations were included in books written by A. P. Herbert, E. V. Lucas and Anthony Armstrong.[4]

Stampa's work was part of the painting event in the art competition at the 1928 Summer Olympics.[7] He exhibited at the Royal Institute of Painters and the Royal Academy.[6] Stampa's abiding interest in drawing animals led him to be a Life Member of London Zoo.[12]

Personal life

Stampa's elder brother, Lelio Stampa (1873-1943), was a lecturer in Modern History at the University of Oxford.[8] T. E. Lawrence was tutored by Lelio Stampa, and Lawrence would later give the Stampa family a suit of chainmail obtained during Lawrence's travels in Arabia.[8] The youngest of Stampa's brothers, Arturo, died of pneumonia in 1892.[8]

Stampa was a first cousin of William Heelis, husband of Beatrix Potter.[12][21] Stampa's brother, Lelio, was a witness at the wedding.[22]

Stampa was a member of the Savage Club, having been elected by Leonard Raven-Hill, and would later serve on the board of trustees.[23] He designed a menu for a dinner at the Savage Club on 21 January 1928 that was chaired by A. P. Herbert.[23] Stampa was also a young attendee at the Langham Sketch Club in All Souls Place near Regent Street, London, and would later be its chairman in 1914.[11][12] As a fan of cricket he would regularly attend matches at Lord's.[23]

In 1906 Stampa married Ethel Crowther (d. 1946), eldest daughter of the late Clifford Crowther of Claygate.[12][2] In 1908 they had one son, Arthur L Stampa, who was the principal beneficiary of his father's will.[12][24] Stampa died in London on 26 May 1951.[1] John O'London's Weekly described him as:[23]

The most cheerful, contented and amiable inhabitants of what is called Bohemian London. He never envies anyone and sincerely appreciates the work of his rivals. The consequence is that no man has a larger number of friends.

Perhaps his best epitaph was written by his granddaughter, Flavia Stampa Gruss, in her book, The Last Bohemian:[25]

He was a man who cared deeply for England and things English. Although given to nostalgia, G. L. S. was at home in the world of his life and times which, however Bohemian (of the gentler sort), remained one of "an English sun under an English Heaven". Yet we should never forget that G. L. S. gained from his Italian forebears a special warmth and lightness of touch - the ragamuffins of Seven Dials were the blood brothers of those of Venice and Milan. He was very much a man of his times, an honoured member of a family of ancient descent.
