John CromeWindmill, John Crome (1768–1821)
About the Item
This painting by John Crome depicting a windmill is characterized by his early 19th-century English landscape style, often associated with the Norwich School. Crome was known for his detailed, atmospheric landscapes that captured rural life and the natural world, often with a focus on the Norfolk countryside.
In this painting, the windmill is the central feature, standing next to another tall tree, against a broad, open sky. The structure itself is depicted in muted tones of ochre browns and grays, with the sails or blades turning in a gentle breeze. Crome’s attention to natural light is evident, with soft shading and a focus on how the windmill’s form interacts with the surrounding landscape.
The color palette features earthy greens, browns, and soft blues, creating a harmonious and serene atmosphere. Crome’s brushwork is precise yet expressive, capturing the texture of the landscape and the weather conditions, whether it be a bright, sunny day or a more moody, overcast sky.
John Crome (22 December 1768 – 22 April 1821), once known as Old Crome to distinguish him from his artist son John Berney Crome, was an English landscape painter of the Romantic era, one of the principal artists and founding members of the Norwich School of painters. He lived in the English city of Norwich for all his life. Most of his works are of Norfolk landscapes.
Crome's work is in the collections of public art galleries, including the Tate Gallery and the Royal Academy in London, and the Castle Museum in Norwich. He produced etchings and taught art.
