Life and career
Bond was baptised in Stroud, Gloucestershire in July 1725 and probably educated at The Crypt School in Gloucester, where his uncle was an usher.[2] He married Susannah Hodgetts at St Philip's, Birmingham in 1758.[2] He was apprenticed as a painter of japanned and papier-mâché goods to Henry Clay in Birmingham,[3] and from 1757 was in charge of the ornamental department of Matthew Boulton's Soho Manufactory.[1]
Nothing is known of Bond's artistic career until 1761, when he exhibited a landscape drawing after Claude Joseph Vernet at the Society of Artists in London.[2] Between 1762 and 1769 he exhibited over 30 landscapes at the rooms of the Free Society of Artists, exhibiting further works in 1775 and 1780.[2] He won 25 guineas in 1764 for the second best landscape in the exhibition, and in 1765 he won 50 guineas for the first prize.[3]
His productions are described as highly finished landscapes, broad in treatment, after the style of Wilson, R.A.. He seems to have amassed property enough to live a retired life during his latter years. He died at Hagley Row, Edgbaston, Birmingham, on 18 December 1803. In 1804, a few months after his death, a number of his pictures and drawings were sold by auction in London.
He was the elder brother of the composer Capel Bond.[2]
