George Frederick Nicholls (1857–1939) was a British painter renowned for his topographical artworks, particularly those depicting the landscapes of Cornwall, the Cotswolds, and Oxford. His works are characterised by strong technique and his ability to capture light and typically depict picturesque views over rural England. His art continues to be appreciated today for its detailed representation of early 20th-century British landscapes.
