Thomas Creswick

Born : 1811Died : 1869

Thomas Creswick (1811–1869), born in Sheffield, moved to London in 1828. His early landscapes explored Wales, Ireland and northern England, among other regions. Elected a full member of the Royal Academy in 1851, he developed his practice within British exhibition networks.

Tate holds The Stile, dated and exhibited in 1839, and The Ford, an oil on canvas bequeathed by Henry Vaughan in 1900. Their titles evoke countryside crossed by paths and passages. His imagery also circulated through print: The Miller’s Home at the Metropolitan Museum is a hand-coloured lithograph published by Currier & Ives after his painting between 1857 and 1871. A bridge, children and a mill connect the landscape with the everyday uses of its spaces.

This profile brings together identity references for Thomas Creswick and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
