John Atkinson Grimshaw
(1836 – 1893) was a Victorian-era painter, born in Leeds, England.
At the age of 24, to the dismay of his parents, he departed from his
first job as a clerk for the Great Northern Railway to pursue a career
in art. He began exhibiting in 1962, under the patronage of the Leeds
Philosophical and Literary Society, with paintings mainly of dead
birds, fruit and blossom.. Grimshaw's primary influence was the Pre-Raphaelites.
He would often paint landscapes that typified seasons, or that typified
a kind of weather. By applying his skill in lighting effects, and
unusually careful attention to detail, he was often capable of intricately
describing a scene, while strongly conveying its mood.
