Alfred William Hunt (1830 - 1896) United Kingdom
Alfred William Hunt (1830 - 1896) Watercolor on Paper, Signed, Measures, ( 6.5 x 10 inches ) w/frame ( 12.5 x 15.5 inches ) Alfred William Hunt was a landscape painter and watercolorist who was first associated with the Liverpool School of Painters, but later had a successful London career. His watercolors, which were praised by Ruskin, often combine Pre-Raphaelite precision with Turneresque atmosphere. He was the son of a Liverpool landscape painter, but although he was precociously talented in art his parents wished him to enter the church. He went up to Corpus Christi College, Oxford in 1848, won the Newdigate prize for poetry in 1851, and between 1853 and his marriage in 1861, held an Oxford fellowship. Meanwhile he had become an Associate of the Liverpool Academy in 1854, the year he also began to exhibit paintings at the Royal Academy, London. In 1856 Ruskin in Academy Notes praised one of his works there as "The best landscape I have ever seen in the exhibition for many a day''
