Description

A richly illustrated biography of a Victorian landscape painter. In James Clarke Hook Juliet McMaster tracks the life and career of the brilliant yet underappreciated Victorian painter, from his rigorous training at the Royal Academy Schools, his travelling studentship in Florence and Venice, and his work as a historical painter, to the discovery of his métier as an inspired painter of contemporary rural and coastal scenes.
