Jonathan Richardson the elder (1667–1745)
National Portrait Gallery, London
Horace Walpole, who based his account of Kent on George Vertue s unflattering biography, regarded his work as a painter as below mediocrity . This has been the nearly unanimous verdict of posterity.
Yet, it should not be forgotten that Kent had trained as a painter in Rome. According to Vertue, who is probably a reasonably reliable source for this, after an initial apprenticeship as a coach painter & house painter he migrated to London and travelled out to Italy in July 1709 in company with John Talman, son of the leading architect of the time, and Daniel Lock, who was, like Talman, a person of wide artistic tastes. ....

School for starchitects | Apollo Magazine


Given the ancient character of the craft, architecture school is a comparatively recent cultural phenomenon.
