Thomas Creswick RA (1811-1869) was well-loved by the Victorian middle classes who scattered their walls with picturesque etchings, rural idylls, and gentle pastoral scenes. He was born in Sheffield but is known as one of the leading figures of the ‘Birmingham School’ of landscape painters.
Over the course of his life, Creswick exhibited 266 works at the Royal Academy, the British Institution and the Suffolk Street Gallery.
Today, he’s represented in many public collections including at the V&A, Derby Art Gallery, Sheffield Museum, and the Walker Art Gallery.
Please note. Due to the fragile nature of old frames and glass, our shippers do not provide insurance for any damage caused during transit. We go to great lengths to ensure each painting is packed and protected to a very high standard but sadly cannot compensate or refund for any damage occurring to frames or glass during transit. Therefore the frame and any glass is a gift to you with zero value and you are bidding on the artwork only.
Due to Brexit, there are delays at EU customs borders though the situation is improving. Please do not blame me for delays or any customs duty payable. I really appreciate your understanding and patience. Steve.
