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.

Country Cottage
By Abraham Hulk the Younger
Located in Hillsborough, NC
Late 19th/early 20th century oil on canvas painting in the manner of Abraham Hulk the Younger (1851-1922), and George Vincent (1796-1832). These artists painted in the Dutch style, though both are British. Each has had experience with Dutch masters that influence their work. George Vincent’s work is perhaps even closer to this than Hulk’s. Vincent paints the trees and skies with the warm hues of light infused on the work. Here, the sky has blue but also a khaki or tan shade, roughed into the blue and white. It is an unusual color in skies, yet Vincent shows us the light through clouds castingva darker shade. The trees are varied greens but also yellowed leaves, as in autumn.
Presented in a period decorative gilt frame, the painting is of a cottage in a woodland with cattle by a pond, a little black dog and man and a woman standing by. In the distance is a glimpse of a river and grasses, framed by trees and an overcast sky.
Hulk is renowned for his treatment of the changing season from summer to autumn, and the golden leaves and fading greens in this painting suggest this changing time of year.
Hulk is the son of a well known Dutch maritime...
