Description:
|
|
John Atkinson Grimshaw was a Victorian artist who became famous for his sombre views of the dockyards and his nocturnal scenes of urban lanes with leafless trees silhouetted against the moonlit sky. During his later life, he became a close friend of James McNeill Whistler who admired his work and admitted: "I considered myself the inventor of nocturnes until I saw Grimmy's moonlight picture." Grimshaw painted mostly for private patrons. (Source: Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum [website]; https://www.museothy ssen.org/en/)
