Description

Charles James Adams was an enormously talented landscape painter from Gravesend in Kent. Adams studied at Leicester Art School, where he was under the tutelage of Wilmot Pilsbury (1840–1908). Adams painted in both oils and watercolours and had been known to use lithography earlier in his career. Like many artists of the time, Adams travelled extensively across the United Kingdom, recording the landscape in an idyllic or picturesque fashion. He exhibited widely, at all the principle London institutions, and established a strong reputation and following.
