Life

Joseph Murray Ince was born in London in April 1806[2][3] and he spent his childhood in Presteigne in Radnorshire (now in Powys), Wales. Ince was certain of his future profession and as a career choice took immediately to painting. From 1823 to 1826 he was a pupil under the painter David Cox. In 1826 he moved to London and exhibited at the Royal Academy. Later his work was chosen for exhibition at the British Institution for Promoting the Fine Arts in the United Kingdom and other galleries.[1]

Kings College Cambridge by Ince

In 1832 he made many architectural drawings and views of the colleges in Oxford and Cambridge. Ince was a drawing master at Cambridge University in the 1830s[4] living at 12 King's Parade.[5] Ince married in 1834 but lost his wife in childbirth.[3] About 1835 he returned to Presteigne, where he spent the majority of his time, but he had to keep contact with his customers as well in London. He had inherited some property from his parents which supplemented the good income that he made from his painting. He painted many maritime and rural scenes including harvesting and woodcutting showing contemporary people and their animals.[4]

Ince died on 24 September 1859, and was buried in Kensal Green cemetery, London. Ince was a good painter of landscapes in watercolour. There are examples of his drawings at the South Kensington Museum, and in the print room at the British Museum.[1]

He has a blue plaque on his former house in Powys[3] and a monument was erected to his memory at Presteigne.

gollark: There's an option to do that on install.
gollark: Anyway, you can run it in CCEmuX to try the uninstaller.
gollark: It's better!
gollark: Yes, that is what I have been saying.
gollark: ```Features:- Fortunes/Dwarf Fortress output/Chuck Norris jokes on boot (wait, IS this a feature?)- (other) viruses (how do you get them in the first place? running random files like this?) cannot do anything particularly awful to your computer - uninterceptable (except by crashing the keyboard shortcut daemon, I guess) keyboard shortcuts allow easy wiping of the non-potatOS data so you can get back to whatever nonsense you do fast- Skynet (rednet-ish stuff over websocket to my server) and Lolcrypt (encoding data as lols and punctuation) built in for easy access!- Convenient OS-y APIs - add keyboard shortcuts, spawn background processes & do "multithreading"-ish stuff.- Great features for other idio- OS designers, like passwords and fake loading (set potatOS.stupidity.loading [time], set potatOS.stupidity.password [password]).- Digits of Tau available via a convenient command ("tau")- Potatoplex and Loading built in ("potatoplex"/"loading") (potatoplex has many undocumented options)!- Stack traces (yes, I did steal them from MBS)- Backdoors- er, remote debugging access (it's secured, via ECC signing on disks and websocket-only access requiring a key for the other one)- All this useless random junk can autoupdate (this is probably a backdoor)!- EZCopy allows you to easily install potatOS on another device, just by sticking it in the disk drive of another potatOS device!- fs.load and fs.dump - probably helpful somehow.```
