John Atkinson Grimshaw

“John Atkinson Grimshaw is a remarkable painter who is less widely appreciated than he should be, for many reasons: little is known of his life, he worked mainly in the north of England, most of his paintings are in private collections and he was unfashionably versatile yet he became one of the worlds artist.” https://www.johnatkinsongrimshaw.org/biography.html.

Why him? Well, only because we came out of the door to be confronted by a lovely red lustrous sunrise.

You may be familiar with his paintings which (amongst a very large portfolio – Ed.) include sunsets and sheep (and “After the Shower” which doesn’t – Ed.).
