Watercolorist. Born in England near the border of Yorkshire and Lincolnshire in 1858.

Being from an upper class family, Farnsworth was well educated in England and later became a member of the British Royal Engineeers. While studying civil engineering in Paris, he became interested in painting and may have had some instruction there. From Paris, he moved to Canada where his sketching ability was of great use while working as a railroad surveyor.

He then lived for several years in (showing 500 of 1584 characters).
