Son of artist,Wycliffe Egginton, RI (1875-1951), Frank Egginton was born in Cheshire and first visited

Ireland in the 1930s. He is synonymous with views in watercolour of the Irish countryside, particularly

County Donegal. From the early 1930s many of his works were shown at the RHA, and later, from 1952

at the Victor Waddington Gallery in Dublin. In the UK his works were shown at the Fine Art Society

and Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours, London and the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool among

others. The artist’s daughter and son-in-law own ‘The Gallery’, Dunfanaghy Co. Donegal since 1968
