Ernest E. Talbot

Ernest E. Talbot (1872-1932) was a Brunanter postimpressionist painter active in the late 19th and early 20th century.

Early life
Ernest Talbot was born in Maribor (Austria-Hungary) to a traveling English couple. Within a year his father died and his mother moved to Carrington to stay with relatives. Ernest added the "E." to his name in 1889 as he did not have a middle name.

Personal life and family
Talbot was known for being a womanizer and frequently had relationships with many of his female (and sometimes even male) subjects. Talbot was generally seen down upon by art connoisseurs for his "loose lifestyle". In 1897 he married Willemine Koerner (1878-1902), a young painter. They had a daughter, Emily in 1899, but Willemine died in 1902 during childbirth.
