Artist Biography

Alfred William Strutt (1856-1924) was born in New Zealand and was the son of the artist William Strutt. He spent much of his life in England. Strutt was taught by his father and also attended South Kensington Schools. He painted a variety of subjects including genre and sporting scenes.
