Wright's painting was included in a painting of the 1839 exhibition by Samuel Rayner.
His wife, Ann Rayner, was an engraver on Ashford Black Marble and six of their children went on to be professional artists.

Samuel Rayner was born in 1806 at Colnbrook in Buckinghamshire (now in Berkshire); afterwards the family moved to Marylebone in London where he was possibly trained by his grandfather.
