Moonlight in paintings by John Atkinson Grimshaw #painting #moonlight #art #history #historyfacts

John Atkinson Grimshaw was the Painter of Moonlight.

Known for his city night-scenes and landscapes, John Atkinson Grimshaw was a Victorian artist described by British art historian Christopher Wood as a “remarkable and imaginative painter

Sharply focused, almost photographic, Grimshaw poetically applied the tradition of rural moonlit scenes to the city, with its rain puddles, mists, and the smoky fog of late Victorian industrial England.

Grimshaw evokes the very feeling of chill in the night air or the damp of mists at dawn’s early light.
