George Victor Du Noyer (1817-1869) painter, geologist and antiquarym, was born in Dublin the son of Louis Victor Du Noyer and Margaret Du Bédat, both of Huguenot descent. His father was a French teacher. George was a gifted and extremely prolific artist. Most of his work relates exclusively to Ireland. Throughout his life, he was often commissioned to draw or paint realistic depictions of locations all over Ireland (making many of his works interesting from an Irish historical perspective). Much of this work took place during his time with the Irish Ordnance Survey. He lived in Dublin for many years but died of scarlet fever while on Survey in County Antrim where he was buried.
