Heywood Hardy was born in Chichester, on 25th November 1842, son of the artist James Hardy, Snr (1801-79) and younger brother of James Hardy Jnr (1832-89).
Hardy left home at the age of 17, and attempted to earn a living by painting animal paintings. Hardy did this successfully and, after a short time with the 7th Somerset Volunteers, Hardy borrowed some money from his brother and travelled to Paris. In 1864 Hardy entered the Beaux Arts to study under the battle artist, Pielse.
Hardy returned to England in 1868 and found he was in great demand.
