Joseph Crawhall III

Joseph Crawhall (20 August 1861 – 24 May 1913[1]) was an English artist born in Morpeth, Northumberland.

He was strongly influenced by the Impressionists, and his work, like theirs, was rejected by the art establishment, in his case in the form of the Royal Scottish Academy.

[3] In the 1880s he travelled throughout Morocco and Spain, abandoning oil painting and moving to watercolours with a lighter palette.

Reid had introduced Crawhall and Burrell at a private dinner party at his house on 13 April.

[5] Many of Crawhall's works are in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and in the Burrell Collection.
