Description
English: Hooke's father was the curate of All Saints' Church, Freshwater, (shown in the background), near the sluggish river the Western Yar. Although still a boy, Hooke made a model boat that would fire off cannon as it sailed. At the age of thirteen, after the death of his father, who had left him £40, he left his mother and moved to London to be educated at Westminster School after first abandoning an apprenticeship with the artist Sir Peter Lely. This painting was presented to The Robert Hooke Society on the Isle of Wight and hangs in The Planetarium.
