Busy Market Day - James Holland
James Holland (1799-1870) was an English artist of paintings and watercolors. Born in Staffordshire, his work is classical and rich in detail. This oil on canvas is signed lower left in the original frame. Holland exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1824 at just 25 years old. By 1835 he is recorded as an associate exhibitor of the Society of Painters in Watercolours. In 1843 he joined the Society of British Artists, and had fully established himself as a sought-after classical artist. He held personal exhibitions in Portugal, Holland and Switzerland in addition to his native England. This is a charming scene with color and liveliness balanced by the restraint of the classical style.
