Edward Charles Williams

1807 – 1881

English painter, part of the Williams family of painters, the eldest son of Edward Williams. He received his early training from his father, as can readily be seen from the similarity of their works - both painting in the same woodland style reminiscent of the early Dutch landscape artists. Williams lived in and around London for most of his life and many of his paintings feature scenes from the surrounding countryside including Kent, Surrey, Sussex and Essex. He was the least prolific exhibitor of the family, but did exhibit at all the major exhibition halls, including: The Royal Academy, British Institution, Royal Society of British Artists, Institute of Fine Arts and the National Institution.
