compared to the extensive information about American artists.
A local born artist of Kingston-on-Hull, he established himself in the footsteps of John Ward, and quickly rose to prominence among the painters of the third largest port of Britain and the reputed “biggest fishing port in the world”. He worked almost exclusively with an agent, James Eyre Jackson, and exhibited in London in 1871. He later wrote that he found the exhibition experience “personally distasteful”. One hundred years later his works would be featured in a televised exhibit from London, (showing 500 of 1532 characters). |
