Artist Biography

British artist Thomas Pyne created atmospheric watercolours which celebrated the beauty of the British countryside. Pyne was the son of James Baker Pyne (1800-1870), a contemporary of Turner much celebrated for his own watercolour landscapes.

Pyne exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy, and critics often praised his compositions for their ‘artistic delicacy.’ He was also part of the Society for Painters in Water Colours. Pyne did much good service for their cause, and it seems evident he travelled often in order to expand his vistas and views.

From Wales to Essex, Pyne sought to capture the soul of the country. He also spent some time travelling abroad in Germany and Italy. No matter where he travelled, Pyne could turn his paintbrush to an evocative mastering of landscape.

Pyne spent his latter years living in Dedham, Essex, before passing away in 1935.
