This gentleman was the son of Joseph Wright, of Borden- town, New-Jersey, and Patience Lovell of the same place, so celebrated afterwards as Mrs. Wright the modeller in wax. The subject of this memoir was born at Bordentown, on the 16th of July, J 756. After the death of his father, his mother about the year 1772, carried him with other children to Lon- don ; she became famous for her modelling in wax, and was enabled to give Joseph a good education. He was in his ef- forts to become a painter,... aided by Benjamin West, and by Hopner, who married his sister. In a letter from Mrs. Hopner to her mother in 1 78 J, who was then in Paris, and very successful in her wax modelling, she requests her not to write to Joseph in such style as will encou- rage him to think that she will make a fortune for him ; for she says, Joe is inclined enough already to be idle, and that he receives the money from the wax-work exhibition, and spends it at pleasure. Joseph, however, before he left England had made himself a good portrait painter, and had painted a like- ness of the Prince of Wales, afterwards George the Fourth.
