Artist Biography

Albert Henry Findley was born in Leicester on 7th March 1880. He was the eldest son of Richard Findley, a chairmaker for churches, businesses and private houses. Although Albert was first employed in the shoe industry, his great interest was in carpentry (taking after his father) and he made many fine pieces of furniture in his lifetime. It was in about 1907 that he started painting scenes of Leicester and these were followed by various cathedral views including York, Lincoln, Norwich, Peterborough and Durham. After his retirement in 1945 he was able to paint full time.
