James Campbell (artist)

James Campbell (Liverpool, 1828 – Birkenhead, 1893) was an English artist, part of a group from Liverpool, who were influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite style.

His pictures focused on the details of lower-middle class and working class life in his native Liverpool, with works such as Waiting for Legal Advice (1857) which drew on his first hand experience as son of an insurance clerk.

The Walker Art Gallery describes him as "the most Dickensian of all the Pre-Raphaelites.
