William Henry Crome Art
British, 1806-1873
William Henry Crome was born in Norwich on October 22, 1806. He was the third son of John Crome, one of the founders of the Norwich school. Crome was very unfortunate in losing his father at the early age of 15. Whilst John Berney, his older brother, had sheltered under his father’s wing, Crome had to make his way and this he commenced to do with good effect. In 1826, Crome was sufficiently competent to exhibit a painting entitled A View at Costessey, Norfolk at the British institution. The acceptance of the exhibit must have spurred him on. Crome married Mary Ann Steel. At the age of 24, Crome was beginning to look towards one of the Old Masters, Claude Lorraine, for influence. This influence can be identified in many of his Scottish scenes painted around 1830. Crome traveled to the continent and his visit is recorded by an inscription on a painting, which reads, Near Aix La Chappelle, Brussels in 1854. Crome died in 1873.

A superb Scottish landscape painting of Highland Sheep at the head of Glen Coe by William Watson. The sheep and their lambs are depicted grazing in the morning light with the dramatic mountains beyond. Glen Coe is a valley located in the Highlands to the North of the county of Argyll and close to the province of Lochaber. The area, which became infamous for the Massacre of Glencoe is one of Scotland’s most scenic Highland glens.
William Watson was born in Islington in 1847, the son of the London miniature painter William John Watson (1810-1871) and his wife Caroline (née Butcher). His brothers Charles Watson (1837-1900) and Robert Watson (1855-1921) were also artists. His father seems to have travelled around and after spending time in Brighton, the family moved to Bransford Road in Worcester during the early part of the 1860’s.
As well as being taught by his father, Watson received his early training in the studio of Sir Francis Grant PRA (1803-1878). He later became a pupil of Sir Edwin Henry Landseer RA (1802-1873) and Rosa Bonheur (1822–1899). Both Landseer and Bonheur had a great influence on his work and he began specialising in scenes of cattle and sheep. By 1866 he had become a full time artist and began exhibiting at the Royal Society of British Artists.
Perhaps to take advantage of the inspiring scenery, Watson moved to Birkenhead, Cheshire where in 1871 he met and married Eleanor Davies who was from Caernarvonshire. Four of their children Sidney Watson (1881-1931), Caroline Ellen Watson (1871-1947), William Robert Charles Watson (1873-1928) and Walter James Watson...
