Arthur James Stark (1831-1902) was a British painter known for his serene and atmospheric depictions of the English countryside. Born in London in 1831, Stark showed an early talent for art and pursued formal training at prestigious institutions.
Stark's artistic education began at the Royal Academy Schools in London, where he studied under renowned landscape painters of the time. He was deeply influenced by the Romantic landscape tradition, which emphasized the sublime beauty of nature and the emotional response it evoked in viewers.
Throughout his career, Stark traveled extensively throughout England, seeking inspiration in its varied landscapes. He was particularly drawn to the pastoral scenery of the English countryside, with its rolling hills, tranquil rivers, and picturesque villages. Stark had a keen eye for capturing the subtle nuances of light and atmosphere, imbuing his paintings with a sense of serenity and tranquility.
Stark's paintings often feature soft, muted colors and a sense of quiet contemplation, reflecting his deep reverence for the natural world. He was skilled at creating compositions that invited viewers to lose themselves in the peaceful beauty of the landscape, away from the hustle and bustle of urban life.
Despite his talent and dedication to his craft, Stark remained relatively unknown during his lifetime, as he preferred to focus on his art rather than seeking fame or recognition. However, his work gained greater appreciation in the years following his death, and today he is recognized as a master of the English landscape tradition.
Arthur James Stark's legacy lives on through his timeless paintings, which continue to captivate viewers with their beauty and evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. His ability to capture the essence of the English countryside has earned him a place among the most esteemed landscape painters of the 19th century.

A lovely landscape painting of sheep on a coastal cliff by Charles ‘Sheep’ Jones. The sheep and her two lambs are depicted against the backdrop of the sea with shipping and chalk cliffs in the distance. The location is likely to be the Devon coast, an area Jones visited often.
Charles Jones was an animal painter who was born in Stepney, London in 1836. He was the son of the artist Samuel John Egbert Jones (1797-1861) and Dinah Jones. He lived with his parents and 9 siblings in Mile End and was a pupil of his father. In September 1859, he married Frances Rosalinda Downe, who was born in America. His son Arthur Bertram Loud (1863-1930) also became an artist. They lived at 12 Hayes Place, Lisson Grove from where he made his debut in London at the Royal Academy in 1861. He also exhibited at the British Institution, Suffolk Street, New Watercolour Society, Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours.
By 1867, he had become a successful artist and had moved to 7 Paragon Place, Brixton Hill. From 1874, he lived at Heathercroft, Balham Hill where he spent the rest of his life. As well as the major London galleries, he also exhibited provincially at various locations including: the Royal Cambrian Academy where he was elected a member in 1886, the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts, Manchester City Art Gallery, Royal Hibernian Academy, Royal Society of British Artists, Birmingham and the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool. Some of the smaller more intimate galleries he exhibited at were Arthur Tooth & Sons and Thomas Richardson...
