Light wear to spine, covers and corners. ; Atkinson Grimshaw (1836-1893) was an artist best known for his cityscapes and landscapes imbued with a sense of the ethereal, often depicting the urban and rural scenes under the enigmatic cover of night or twilight. Grimshaw was a self-taught artist, having started his career as a railway clerk before fully dedicating himself to painting in the 1860s. His work is characterized by meticulous attention to detail, atmospheric effects, and a unique use of light and shadow, which contribute to the mood and narrative of his scenes. Grimshaw's paintings often feature moonlit streets, autumnal moods, leafy lanes, and twilight vistas, showcasing his fascination with the transition between day and night and the interplay of artificial and natural lights. Despite his focus on landscapes and urban scenes, Grimshaw's work also includes a number of portraiture and historical genre paintings, though these are less well-known compared to his atmospheric landscapes. He was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites and Victorian realism, but his distinctive style, especially his nocturnal scenes, set him apart from his contemporaries. ; Quarto; 180 pages.
