About the Item
This painting attributed to William Henry 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.
William Henry Crome (1806–1873) was a British landscape painter and the son of the renowned artist John Crome, founder of the Norwich School of painters. Following in his father's footsteps, William Henry specialized in atmospheric rural scenes and landscapes, often depicting the Norfolk countryside with a focus on natural light and detailed foliage.
Though never as widely recognized as his father, William Henry Crome maintained the Norwich School’s traditions, contributing to its legacy of naturalistic and regionally inspired art. His works exhibit a strong sense of composition and often feature tranquil woodland views, riverbanks, and rustic buildings. He exhibited at the Royal Academy and the British Institution, and his paintings are held in several regional collections.

19th century landscape oil painting of a village tavern with a windmill
By John Holland Senior
Located in Nr Broadway, Worcestershire
John Holland Snr
British, (1830-1886)
The Windmill Tavern
Oil on canvas, signed
Image size: 13 inches x 20.5 inches
Size including frame: 18.25 inches x 25.75 inches
Provenance: Frost & Reed
A pleasing landscape painting of the Windmill Tavern by John Holland Snr. The scene depicts a large group of people conversing outside the inn whilst others make their way along a country track running beside it. The building and windmill pictured here appear very similar to those situated at Reigate Heath in Surrey. The mill at Reigate was built in 1753 and was still used for grinding wheat up until around 1870. The main building is now the Reigate Heath Golf Club. The windmill still stands today and is owned and maintained by Reigate and Banstead Borough Council.
John Holland Senior was a painter of landscapes and coastal scenes who was born in Nottingham around 1830. He was the son of a painter and brother to Samuel Holland also a painter and sign writer. He was also uncle to his namesake John Holland (1857-1920) whom he taught to work in charcoal and Samuel S. Holland, both of whom were artists.
By 1861, he had become a full time artist exhibiting at Suffolk Street from around this time until 1879, at the British Institution between 1865-1866 as well as exhibiting locally in Nottingham. He never married and lived for many years with his father, brother and his family at Vernon Street, Nottingham. Around 1867, he moved to Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire where he exhibited locally. He would also often travel around the British countryside and coast to paint.
He spent a few years in West Yorkshire but by 1871 had moved back to live with his family in Nottingham. However, he spent his final years living at Trebray Lodge, Tintagel, Cornwall where he died on 7 February 1886.
A number of his works are held by the Buxton Museum, Calderdale Metropolitan Borough Council, Nottingham Art Gallery and the Williamson Art Gallery.
Presentation: The painting is housed in a new, English made gilt frame which is in excellent condition. The reverse bears an old label for Frost & Reed. Frost & Reed are a well-known fine Art Gallery, frame maker and fine art publisher founded in Bristol in 1808 by William Hill. The business was bought by John Frost in 1859 who ran it until his death in 1875. His nephew Walter Frost took over the business and in 1881 brought in William Reed...
