Ricevute le prime lezioni di disegno dal padre, anche lui pittore, mostrò una dote naturale nella cura e nella bellezza del disegno. Nel [[1846]] Sandys frequentò la Norwich School of Design, nello stesso anno il suo talento fu riconosciuto dalla [[Society of Arts]]. Dimostrò le sue doti di disegnatore ottenendo un riconoscimento con la sua [[parodia]] del ''Sir Isumbras at the Ford'' di [[John Everett Millais]] nel [[1857]].
He was born in [[Norwich, England]] and received his earliest lessons in art from his father, who was himself a painter. His early studies show that he had a natural gift for careful and beautiful drawing. In 1846 Sandys attended the Norwich School of Design. In the same and next year his talent was recognized by the [[Society of Arts]]. He displayed great skills as a draughtsman, achieving recognition with his print parodying [[John Everett Millais]]'s ''Sir Isumbras at the Ford'' in 1857. The caricaturist turned the horse of Sir Isumbras into a donkey labelled J. R., Oxon. ([[John Ruskin]]). Upon it were seated Millais himself, in the character of the knight, with [[Dante Gabriel Rossetti|Rossetti]] and [[William Holman Hunt]] as the two children, one before and one behind. Rossetti and Sandys became intimate friends, and for about a year and a quarter, ending in the summer of 1867, Sandys lived with Rossetti at Tudor House (now called Queens House) in [[Cheyne Walk]], [[Chelsea, London|Chelsea]]. His own works were profoundly influenced by those of Rossetti. He focused mainly on mythological subjects and portraits.
