Morley is a forgotten English Botanical Artist & Portraitist. Very little is known about the artist, but he was the brother or respected equine artist, George Morley. Ebenezer was by all accounts an amateur artist. However, he was commissioned by Queen Victoria to paint the Garden Room of the Pavilion of Buckingham Palace. His work is represented at the National Portrait Gallery in London.
