JAMES (1794-1859) , See also:British painter, was See also:born in See also:Norwich, and as he showed strong See also:artistic inclinations See also:early in See also:life was, at the See also:age of seventeen, articled to See also:John See also:Crome for three years. He was elected in 1812 a member of the Norwich Society, to the exhibitions of which he had already contributed; but in 1817 he migrated to See also:London and entered the Royal See also:Academy See also:Schools. He soon returned to Norwich and did not finally See also:settle in the See also:metropolis until 1830, though he was meanwhile a See also:regular contributor to the British Institution and See also:Suffolk See also:Street Galleries. In 184o he moved to See also:Windsor, but after an See also:interval of some years went back to London, where he died in 1859. Between 1831 and 1859 most of his pictures were shown at the Royal Academy, though he still continued to exhibit occasionally in other galleries. He undertook in 1827 the publication of a See also:work on The Scenery of the See also:Rivers of See also:Norfolk, which was completed seven years later; the illustrations he
prepared for it have much topographical and artistic See also:interest and show well the better qualities of his work. In his pictures the See also:influence of Crome is plainly perceptible, and there is See also:evidence also of his study of the Dutch landscape-painters; but he had little of Crome's largeness and See also:power and his See also:works See also:charm rather by their See also:gentle truth and quietness of manner than by their robustness of view or by their decisiveness of See also:execution. There is one picture by him, " The Valley of the Yare," in the See also:National See also:Gallery of British See also:Art.
