 "Yarmouth
Harbour - Evening" (circa 1817) by John Crome 1768-1821
- Oil on canvas. Crome was the leading figure of the Norwich
school. He had a number of loyal patrons in and around his native
city, but he depended as much on teaching as on picture sales.
He worked as a drawing master in nearby Yarmouth throughout his
career, and painted its estuary, harbour and beaches several
times. The drama in this small finished painting is largely evoked
through the contrast between the warm glow of the sunset on the
left, and the boats almost in silhouette in the foreground. |
